Back to EpisodesSocial Media Savior: Hamlin Fistula UK
Description
Social medias dark side is highlighted in a recent jury ruling, but a Facebook post from Hamlin Fistula UK shines a light on its positive impact. The charity, named after doctors Catherine and Reg Hamlin, is fighting childbirth dangers in poor countries, with a focus on obstetric fistula. This tear between the vagina, bladder, or rectum affects millions of women worldwide, leaving them incontinent and shunned. Hamlin Fistula UK has set up six regional hospitals, reducing fistula rates through prevention and treatment. With global funding cuts, a Facebook donation could make a real difference in the lives of these women and their families.
