There is an acute shortage of trained medical engineers in most countries, in Africa most hospitals have large quantities of equipment that does not work - but could work with a little attention.
This new course, run by Kyambogo University and partly sponsored by The Amalthea Trust, will train 20 x engineers a year and will go a long way to ultimately solving the equipment maintenance problems; not just in Uganda but other English speaking countries in Africa - meaning more operations and care can be provided, thus saving lives. Trauma is the single biggest killer in Africa.

Joe Reeve, Data Plastics Chairman said "Since the development of our Class 7, Cleanroom facility, around 8 years ago, we have seen an increase in production and product range year on year so that now this sector represents over 30% of our current business ? we now manufacture millions of medical components for over 10 companies in the UK and the rest of the world".
