    MEDICAL ASSISTANCE SIERRA LEONE 

    Medical Assistance Sierra Leone supports access to health care and urgent medical treatment for communities and individuals in Sierra Leone. Working with local partners in the government health service and with a range of local NGOs, we support training for health workers, awareness-raising around health issues, and provide a range of medication and equipment to under-resourced services.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • Spending is declining
    • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
