With deep sadness, we announce the death of Mark San
August 2017

It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of Mark San on the 4th July 2017.

He was chairman of the trustees until he resigned due to ill health in 2012. Mark’s warmth, spiritual insight and guidance helped plan the initial concept for child care in Kenya and he used the same qualities to assist Nancy and Jonathan with the formation of the Nasio Trust. Then, for so long as his health permitted, he was involved in its development and growth, visiting Kenya several times.

He will be sadly missed by all who knew him both in the UK and Kenya. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mark’s family.

"I had no hope of being educated but now have the chance to access education, food, clothing and medication. I will work hard and dream to become a builder, to construct homes for people who don’t have shelter."

Changes to the Kenyan Healthcare System Leaves Thousands At Risk

Kenya’s new Social Health Authority (SHA) was meant to expand access to free healthcare. For the communities Nasio serves, it is doing the opposite.

The transition from the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) to SHA has introduced income-based premiums, digital registration, and phone-dependent systems that many families simply cannot access—particularly women, children, and the poorest households.
