2012-10 bike4care uitgifte kaluo

In Siaya County in the western part of Kenya, 51 health care workers are now using bicycles. With the help of the Bike4Care programme, health care workers in Africa use bicycles to visit patients at home. The health workers treat patients and provide information. Moreover they provide remote areas with drugs, mosquito nets, water purification tablets, and water filters. Health workers on a bicycle can visit more patients, reach patients faster, and travel longer distances. On 6th of October, the 51 bicycles were handed over. The health care workers also participated in a training on how to use the bicycle and the basics in maintenance and repair. More information about Bike4Care Kenya and support this programme.
