There are under 12 hours left of the Marie Curie 36 Hour Challenge ⏳. Please donate before 10pm tonight so we can raise as much money as possible for end of life care. The first £100,000 of donations will be doubled! Thank you so much 💛 https://lnkd.in/ej7HGM89 In the next 36 hours, over 400 people could die without the care and support they desperately need. With the current cost of living crisis, and winter approaching, conditions are only getting worse for people living with a terminal illness and the people that care about them. This needs to change, and soon.    Everyone deserves the right care and support, so they can feel comfortable and secure, right up to the end. With your help, we can ensure more people get the best possible end of life care.    How would £1 million make a difference for people at the end of life?  · It could help fund 4,830 nights of expert Marie Curie nursing care.  · It could help fund the heating in all nine Marie Curie Hospices for two and a half years.  · It could help fund the Marie Curie Support Line for three and a half years.

As I walked on Monday - Chapa Kalesa ultra walk- to raise awareness for and around blood donation, I got to interact with a few Kenyans during my few stop overs. I observed high levels of blood donation illiteracy. (Yes, I just made that phrase up and it works 😁) 1. The number of Kenyans who are unaware about blood donation in general, anecdotally, is high. 2. Poor awareness of the donation centres in proximal distance. 3. Poor correlation between the need for donation and the impact and role they can play in addressing the challenge. One Kiambu resident asked me 'why?' in response to me challenging him to consider donating blood. 4. Questions abound inspired by myths and misconceptions around blood donations. 5. There's apathy fuelled by 'claims' of blood trade. 6. Unavailability of blood and blood products for transfusion for patients whose relatives/friends have donated blood at one time or other has been effective in reducing repeat donations. 7. The price that is surcharged transfusion patients is interpreted as blood trade for blood donated for free. In conclusion, there is a great need for national strategic intervention programmes to address this illiteracy and apathy with the objective of increasing blood collections across the country. Also, I propose an all-out, multi-sectoral, public-private approach - we need all hands on deck (no pun intended). Kenya Tissue and Transplant Authority (KETTA) Coalition of Blood for Africa - CoBA
