Nasio Trust COVID-19 response: Update 21st March 2020

Nancy Hunt, our CEO, is currently in Kenya and coordinating Nasio’s response on the ground to the pandemic. The first cases of Coronavirus (COVID-19) have been confirmed in Kenya and Nasio is taking proactive steps to prevent the spread of the virus and protect the health and wellbeing of the Mumias and Musanda communities.

Initially Nancy herself had to self-isolate as a precaution following Kenyan government instructions because she’d just arrived from the UK, a country which already had confirmed Coronavirus cases.

Thank you to GardPass Cyber for new Nasio laptop

The provision of a much-needed laptop computer for me as a new team member in Nasio’s Abingdon office couldn’t have come at a better time now that remote working becomes imperative in today’s challenging times.

We want to thank GardPass Cyber, whose co-founder, Neil Passingham is a Nasio Trustee, for their generous donation of a new laptop. This will mean that I can keep working wherever I am over the next critical weeks and months.

With Regret: We’re No Longer Accepting Unsolicited Physical Gifts

For many years we have transported gifts, packages and donations, via our volunteers, to Kenya. This has, up until this point, been unproblematic due to large luggage allowances on flights to Nairobi.

Regrettably this does mean we will no longer be accepting unsolicited donations such as clothing, books, sports equipment etc.

Jan was kind enough to share this touching story with us:
