Bansang Hospital was built in 1938 and stands deep in the African bush, 200 miles from the coast. It is the main referral hospital for the Central and Upper River Region of The Gambia and is responsible for the healthcare needs of 600,000 people including those trekking from countries such as Senegal and Guinea – Bissau. Many patients travel long distances on horse carts, arriving with life-threatening illnesses that require urgent, specialist treatment. Prior to the charity's inception in 1992, Bansang was a hospital without hope.
