A remote Gambian community is now benefiting from improved access to healthcare, thanks to the work of Riders for Health and the generosity of our supporters.

Download the full report below to find out more about the Jahangka Uhuru, including how it saved the life of baby Ibrahim Jagne and his mother, Matty.
