Useful Gambian Links
If you are interested in The Gambia and what is happening with some other Charities etc. you might find these links useful and informative. Touray & Meyer Veterinary Clinic. http://www.gambiahorseanddonkey.org.uk The Gambia Horse and Donkey Trust is a small charity which is registered in both the UK and The Gambia. Keeping horses and donkeys healthy in The Gambia is a real challenge, insect borne diseases such as Sleeping Sickness (trypanosomiasis), African Horse Sickness, and tick fever are all too common and when these problems are combined with poor nutrition and management caused by lack of knowledge and poverty, the results can be disastrous for the farmers. GambiaRising provides opportunities to impoverished Gambians to better themselves through their own work - primarily through scholarships and financial assistance to Gambian students who otherwise would not be able to stay in school. |
