We are delighted that already a 4-day update training course for Female Community Healthcare Volunteers has taken place at the Baiteshwor Health and Birthing Centre, which was funded by the Nestling Trust together with the Government of Nepal and inaugurated in May '23.
The FCHVs’ main role is to promote safe motherhood, child health, family planning, and other community-based health education. Their work is vital in the rural, mountainous areas of Nepal where medical facilities are so sparse. A valuable part of their work is to facilitate mothers’ group meetings, where women from local villages gather and discuss health issues. Well done to all those involved in arranging this training and to all those who worked so hard to pass the module.
The Nestling Trust continues to fundraise to establish this desperately needed facility to help save the lives of mothers and their babies.
