Under lockdown rules in Uganda private and public transport is banned which leaves people with no option but to walk. Last year we heard stories of people walking over five miles to the nearest hospital to receive treatment, sometimes carrying the sick.
3 in 10 children experienced violence during the last Ugandan lockdown. We have seen cases of domestic violence and teenage pregnancy greatly increase this year. Will you stand with the vulnerable as our team of social workers respond to reports of abuse?

Most slum families live hand to mouth and with the latest lockdown many are no longer able to earn an income. This poses an immediate risk of starvation as there is no government income support scheme. Last year we gave out over 2000 'food-for-a-week' parcels to hungry families.
EMERGENCY APPEAL: Uganda has 44 million people but only 218 ICU beds even with recent capacity increases. However, for many starvation is a bigger threat than Covid-19.
Will you stand with the vulnerable in their moment of need?

The foreign aid cut is indefensible. Tomorrow may offer MPs a chance to force the Government to reverse it. Let us hope and pray this happens, and that our unconscionable broken promise to the worldโs poorest people is put right. #GlobalBritain

NEW TAP LAUNCHED! Over 21 million people in Uganda have no basic access to safe drinking water with 8 million of these relying solely on unimproved or surface water such as ponds or streams. Clean water shouldnโt be a luxury.
Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. James 1 v 27
We are constantly hearing of parents seeing Jesus through the change in their children lives. We love seeing little lives transformed though our childrenโs discipleship, but its all the more exciting when their parents come to know Jesus too.. ๐
It's not too late to catch @nicolanealug on UCB1 radio every day this week, at 5.30am or 8.20pm for a series of short talks. We have seen small practical demonstrations of the love of Jesus to be nothing less than life-changing time and time again. Tune in to hear more..
