From Murwillumbah to Nakuru.
Kenya Health is an organisation founded by Lyle Burgoyne, a registered nurse and midwife, from Murwillumbah NSW. We are an organisation dedicated to the provision of health care to women and young children in Kenya, however our caring volunteers will see anyone who presents themselves at our clinics. These people otherwise have very limited access to medical care. Our aim at Kenya Health is to provide medicine, medical treatment and education to help these people achieve better health.
We are currently providing medical assistance in Nakuru to communities in the slums, the rubbish dump and women's prisons. We are also proud to announce that we are now able to provide care further afield in remote villages at Pokot, Kisii and Transmara.
We have been providing care in Kenya for many years, yet in February 2012 we visited Kenya and identified a need for further care at the Nakuru Hospice which provides care for the terminally ill. On this visit it became apparent to us that ongoing care was desperately needed here and in many areas of Kenya.
