Built on trust, guided by community, driven by compassion.
We are honoured to have a small group of local trustees guiding this initiative from its earliest stages
Each respected member of our team – drawn from local political stewardship, clinical expertise, and faith leadership – brings something uniquely valuable to this project.
Every phase of the initiative will be shaped in close partnership with them, on behalf of the people of Kasane, Kazungula, Lesoma, Satau and all the villages across the Chobe region.
Their role is to ensure that community interests remain at the heart of everything we do.
Goitseone was born in Satau, educated in Kasane, and is a graduate of the University of Botswana.
A proud daughter of Chobe, she understands first-hand the realities faced by families in the outlying villages of the region.
Passionate about empowerment – particularly for women and children – Goitseone is eager to champion a programme of local health-education workshops focused on nutrition, cooking, and exercise.
With extensive experience in community voluntary work, she plays a central role in building local awareness of the project and fostering engagement with partners from local Government, the health sector, and faith leaders.
Goitseone looks forward to helping to oversee the construction of the proposed dialysis facility.
Goitseone has demonstrated her commitment to this initiative by making her plot by the A33 in Kazungula available for the development of this vital community health facility.
Ian is a solicitor based in Manchester, England, with a deep affection for Africa, especially Botswana.
Over the past decade, he has visited the country many times and has a particular fondness for Kasane.
Ian’s commitment to this project is personal.
His late mother, Joan, spent the last five years of her life as an end-stage renal failure patient in the UK. The life-saving dialysis she received gave her and Ian’s family five more precious years together – care that many in the Chobe region simply cannot access.
With a strong sense of justice and a belief that access to basic medical treatment should never depend on geography, Ian is now working to bring together a network of inward investors from the UK medical community to help establish this vital service in north-east Botswana.
Ian has committed his own resources to initiate and advance this project.
