Our Work
Three connected pillars, one humanitarian mission.
1. Medical supply delivery to Sudan
Our principal activity is getting stoma care and urostomy supplies from Northern Ireland to patients across Sudan. Donations are gathered from across the province, then sorted, counted and packed by hand at our community sessions in Belfast.
Prepared goods are shipped by container and handed to trusted organisations on the ground in Sudan, who manage local distribution to the patients who need them. It is a simple, accountable chain — from a donated box in Belfast to a patient hundreds of miles away.
2. Clinical training
Training was where our work began. Before the war, we trained nurses and healthcare professionals in stoma and colorectal care across Sudan. Despite the destruction of on-the-ground training infrastructure, we have continued this thread — delivering online refresher sessions for clinicians managing stoma patients in extremely difficult conditions. We intend to rebuild and expand our training programme as conditions allow, including structured materials for independent use by healthcare workers in Sudan.
3. Community in Northern Ireland
The supplies we send begin with people around a table in Belfast. Members of the Northern Ireland Sudanese diaspora gather to count, sort and package donated goods for shipment. These sessions began for purely practical reasons — but they became something more. For a community living through the distress of watching war at home, the act of doing something tangible offered purpose, connection and wellbeing. We now recognise this community integration as a genuine and valued strand of our work, and intend to develop it further.
