Hands across the equator: the Hereford-Muheza link eight years on.
Short elective sabbatical visits have been arranged between Herefordshire Health Authority in England and Muheza Health District in Tanzania over the past eight years. Any employee can apply, and the 64 who have participated include midwives, physiotherapists, engineers, and nurse tutors. The possibility of being chosen adds to the attractiveness of working in both districts, and costs have been small. The visits are believed to have led to new ideas and a willingness and confidence to consider change.
