We welcomed two final‑year MSc Dietetics students from King’s College London for a three‑week placement at Mildmay. Their project delivered a patient‑focused recipe book - nutritious, budget‑friendly, convenient, and easy to follow - with a digital download coming soon. They also joined life skills, debate groups, and MDT meetings, and reflected on building deeper empathy through conversations with patients.

Over four months, volunteer Vicky helped to digitise decades of Mildmay’s medical records, gaining insight into HIV care and supporting people experiencing homelessness and addiction. Alongside her Master’s in Biomedical Research, she reflects on how the experience has shaped her future in public health.

USAID, once the world’s largest bilateral donor, has been effectively dismantled, leaving millions without vital support and slashing funds for global health programmes. With the Global Fund also facing deep cuts, organisations like Mildmay are stepping up. Our new Uganda Health Programme will rebuild and expand care, but we need your support to make it possible.
