Hospitals Supported by Habibti Liverpool:  The charity currently supports doctors, healthcare workers and some departments within three hospitals located in Sana'a, Yemen: Al Sabeen Hospital, Al Thawra Hospital and more recently Al Kuwait University Hospital. 

The impact of fundraising has seen improvements to ICU facilities, staffing and medical equipment and medication support at Al Sabeen and Al Thawra Hospitals. 

We work with 2 doctors, namely Dr Najla Al-Sonboli and Dr Nasher Al-Aghbari. They are both Alumna of Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM). Both chose to stay in Yemen as the war broke out and serve their people rather than return to the UK. The links between LSTM, the doctors on the ground in Sanaa, the Yemeni and wider UK community is what supports the sustainability of Habibti Liverpool. As Head of Paediatrics, Dr Najla’s successes at Al Sabeen Hospital have meant that she has been assigned to support the Al Kuwait University Hospital. A hospital built by the Kuwait State but is now severely neglected since the war and receives no funding or support from them. She has begun work to resurrect its Paediatric Intensive Care Unit, Isolation Wards and Infection Ward. Dr Nasher, also Head of Paediatrics and Head of ER at Al Thawra Hospital has been assigned another hospital to support for 3 days a week – The Republic Hospital, Sana’a. Dr Najla and Dr Nasher lead the way in regard to what the critical needs are at any one time. These can vary from staff wages, vital equipment, investigations and medication to food and water.

Dr Najla stays in close contact with the team at Habibti Liverpool, and we are regularly updated on the most urgent current need, be that equipment, medication or food. If you would like to fundraise independently to support a specific need, please do make contact for more information.

If you would like to make a regular monthly donation, you can do this by making the first donation in the usual way through the donate button below, and then you will be asked if you'd like to make it a regular thing.
