An International Collaboration with One Local Goal in Sight.

Building Professional Pathways

long road

Establishing a dialysis unit is a complex undertaking requiring collaboration across several professional sectors. The steps outlined below reflect the actual progression required to deliver such a facility – and these are the steps we are now actively moving towards.

 

Each component is standard for a project of this nature. Nothing here is speculative: this is the established route for creating a specialist medical unit in Southern Africa, and we are following it carefully and transparently.

Architects & Technical Design

We are preparing to engage a Southern African architectural practice with a track record in healthcare design.  Their role will be to:

  • Produce outline visuals and technical drawings for a specialised renal treatment facility;
  • Undertake the required feasibility studies, and
  • Liaise with local planning authorities in Chobe.

This is to be our first major professional instruction on the technical side of the project.

Accountancy & Financial Modelling

Accountancy

A Botswana-based accountancy firm (with UK presence) will be appointed to prepare:

  • Full project costings;
  • Staged expenditure plans;
  • Investor-ready financial projections, and
  • Compliance structures suitable for international capital flows.

These projections will form part of the investor briefing to be held in London in early 2026.

Cross-Border Legal Framework (UK & Botswana)

Legal teams in both countries will oversee:

  • The correct procedure for the safe transfer of UK-sourced capital to Botswana.
  • The creation of a transparent and accountable corporate structure;
  • All land, lease, and compliance arrangements for the facility, and
  • Outline procurement oversight protocols to ensure local builders and tradespeople benefit directly.

This dual-legal approach is standard for cross-border community infrastructure and ensures absolute transparency.

Specialist Dialysis Equipment Manufacturers

DIalysis machine

The unit will require high-grade dialysis machines supplied by one of the world’s established specialist manufacturers.  We will explore:

  • Machine supply contracts;
  • Full servicing and maintenance agreements;
  • Staff-training options, and
  • Annual support plans.

These discussions form a critical part of building a safe and sustainable service for patients.

Governmental & Institutional Engagement

We very much look forward to constructive progression with:

  • Chobe Land Board;
  • Chobe District Council;
  • Ministry of Health and Wellness, and
  • High Commission of Botswana in London.

These engagements are essential parts of developing any health project, particularly one intended for future integration into Botswana’s national healthcare system.

Girls with Hearts

We envisage the UK-funded build to be transferred into the management of Chobe District Council and the Ministry of Health and Wellness, to ensure that:

  • Locally trained specialist renal nursing staff will operate the facility;
  • Clinical protocols will be established between the Kasane Primary Hospital and the dedicated Renal Unit at the Princess Marina Hospital in Gaborone;
  • The project will create local jobs in building, nursing, cleaning, maintenance and patient transportation, and
  • No patient in the region will be left to travel hundreds of kilometres for life-saving treatment.
