I hear about Uganda directly from my parents,who are doing volunteer work there, and it sounds immensely trying. Mum is involved in administering anti-retroviral drugs to pre and post natal women. Dad is running the hospital where she's based. Money is tight and the job is quite a challenge. I'm going out there next June and will try to document what I can so I can take it back to Europe and tell people what it's like.
