That's good news, then. I agree that the smaller charity groups are usually more effective, being (as you say) closer to the reality on the ground. They tend to be more focused, too (eg, specialising in a particular geographical area or even specific location).

Is the ability to pay the (that is, your) only criteria, Brian? I only ask as I'm thinking here of Roman's situation out in Uganda (which may be typical). If I'm not mistaken (and I hope to be corrected, if mistaken), Roman works for a private servicing company. So, would you train (or have you in the past trained) all-comers, or just staff at hospitals supported by charities, faith-based hospitals, or whatever? smile


If you don't inspect ... don't expect.
