WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT
All the NICHE International trustees and instructors are volunteers. We have no paid staff, rent or other overheads. All the money we raise is spent on training courses.
As instructors, we give our time freely, but travel to poorly resourced areas of the world is costly and we do not wish to be a financial burden to our hosts.
A group of 5-7 instructors can train as many as 48 candidates in Neonatal Care over the course of a week, as well as selecting and training up to 8 local health professionals to become course instructors.
As well as funding international instructors, we contribute towards the expenses of local instructors and towards the travel expenses of the course candidates, many of whom make difficult journeys from remote areas to undertake training.
We provide training materials, books, photocopied worksheets, and resuscitation equipment, which we leave with the local team for clinical use or on-going training.
Regular donations
Even a modest amount donated regularly helps us to plan our work more effectively.
