Our first day in Malawi consisted of meetings, meetings and more meetings. These were really interesting as they were with people from Malawi Government Ministries interested in the training on cerebral palsy - hopefully CPA can contribute in helping children through the training given to Malawian therapists technicians and other means. We also visited Malawi Council for the Handicapped (above)
Lameck Saka showing Lesley the gaiters and arm wraps that are made at the SOS Children's village in Lilongwe.
SOS kindly allowed us to use a room at their school for the training.
Training for Trainers Workshop Participants
The Lilongwe group, comprising of therapists, Rehabilitation workers and equipment makers. All had done a CPA course before and have had the two day training in order to pass on their skills more effectively. They all taught on a subject of their choice for 5 minutes each. By the huge varitey of topics and intersting presentations they will certainly be training others well.

Let's hope those meetings are productive and help your work to benefit more people - good to see you - Colleen
