Hey everyone, Kate here. I'm a final year physiotherapy student in UCD.This year i have been lucky enough to be chosen as part of a fabulous team of volunteers to travel to Kisiizi hospital in Uganda, where we will spend 4 weeks. During this time, i'll be taking part in the physiotherapy part of the project,where we will be providing additional physiotherapy services to the hospital and local patients. Also, we hope to run a CP camp in which we will provide sustainable treatment for the participants and help educate their families on how best to manage their child's condition and maximise their quality of life.Each volunteer is asked to raise €2,600 to participate in the UCDVO projects. These funds support thevolunteer to carry out the above tasks for one month and also cover the costs of project resourcessuch as a rehabilitation camp, physiotherapy equipment, prostheses, educational resources andrefurbishment. I'd really appreciate any donation that you are able to give, i've left a link below. I assure you that every cent will be used to great effect on this years project.Thanks for your time,Kate.
