that there are people who care for them.
This ward accommodates more than 70 children including those who were abandoned by
their parents at birth.
The Public Relations Officer, Sindy Sibiya delivered them to the ward with the help of
ward supervisors.
On behalf of Church of Scotland Hospital
and Paeditric ward, we would like to express
thanks to South African Redcross and East
