The VSO Kampala cluster spent an industrious& artistic weekend at the Mwana Mugimu (‘healthy child’) unit of Mulago Hospital, painting one of the wards. We hired a local artist to produce the designs& spent two days sanding walls, cleaning windows& brandishing paint-brushes. Theresult was, erm, bright& colourful… (!)& a much cheerier environment for some veryyoung, sick& vulnerable children.The next phase of the project is to design a new playground, but we are also still collecting toys& clothes for the unit– so if you would like any info on how to send some over, please do let me know.
