There is only hospital in the Kamuli which is up to a 2 hour walk for villagers and you have to pay. Therefore many parents do not seek medical help when their children are initially unwell.
Two of the children at Butansi Nursery School were always ill and when they were accompanied home one day, it was discovered that both their parents had HIV Aids – and so did the children! The children were not on medication until we intervened.
Annette then became concerned that many of the other kiddies at the school seemed unwell so BSUF arranged and paid for a team of medical professionals to visit the school and run a proper health check on the children.
