Over the weekend, the Health Centre at Brama, Sierra Leone, suffered another setback, which is a threat to the centre's security.

A flash flood in the adjacent compound, caused by a water blockage, was followed by a heavy downpour of rain and high winds, which has resulted in the destruction of approximately 75 feet of the Health Centre’s boundary wall.

The neighbouring area in question is currently unoccupied and it is not possible to take action or gain compensation to cover the cost of repair for what would be clearly assessed as an accident.

Magnus estimates the cost of rebuilding the wall will be £2,328 (64,000 leones).

We pray that funds will be brought to the Sierra Leone Mission, to contribute to this cost, and enable the boundary to be reinstated quickly for security purposes. Unfortunately, the Health Centre is at risk from intruders, and the compound is a big area to patrol.
