Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital, Malawi

Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH) in Blantyre, Malawi is a major teaching hospital where more than 11,000 mothers deliver each year. Ammalife has a long-standing partnership with the obstetrics and gynaecology department at QECH which has involved staff exchanges, research, provision of practical supplies and working with Birmingham Women’s Hospital to support a link between the two hospitals.

Malawi Association of Obstetric Clinical Officers

The Malawi Association of Obstetric Clinical Officers (MAOCO) was formed in October 2014 by Malawian graduates of the project to bring together Clinical Officers for education and professional development. A strong partnership has developed between Ammalife and (MAOCO) which has involved knowledge sharing and joint program fundraising.

Birmingham Women’s Hospital

Birmingham Women’s hospital is home to Ammalife. Ammalife works with Birmingham Women’s Hospital (BWH) and the Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH) in Blantyre, Malawi to support a partnership between the two hospitals. Both recognise the mutual benefit and the wonderful staff at BWH regularly run fundraising events and organise equipment collections such as textbooks and much needed small disposable medical kit.

University of Birmingham
