November 2006 ~ Fuel Saving Stoves

 

Moyo House

We have taken delivery of our first four fuel saving stoves. Two went to Ann Davidson and Margarite Sacranie for their orphan feeding programmes. The other two went to Moyo House, the Nutritional Rehabilitation Unit at Queen Elizabeth Hospital Blantyre. These stoves are slightly different to the original ones but are very practical in that they have two cooking pots per stove a 50lt pot and an 80 lit pot. Each has its own fire box so only one or both can be used, again saving on fuel when large amounts are not needed. These cost £264 each and one wishing to donate to-wards the cost of one of these can do so through the web site (Donate button on the left) or by the conventional way to us direct.

After Christmas we are taking delivery of four more: one will go to Lucy Finch for her clinic on the Lake shore; and Janet Hanlon our rep in Malawi is looking for homes for the other three. This is going to be an on-going project.

The pots are made in Mulanje so are easy to obtain and we will continue to donate for what we hope will be a lengthy period. In the pictures you can see the staff at Moyo House with the cooking pots and the children who benefit from the food cooked in them. Moyo House is part of Queen Elizabeth hospital where malnourished children with their mothers or carers go to be fed and trained in nutrional feeding.
