ANAH Angola, in partnership with Days for Girls UK, made a lasting impact in Moxico Province, Angola. Led by Days for Girls UK Board Chair Amy Barklam and Country Coordinator Delyth Pannett, we provided reusable menstrual kits and essential maternal health support to women and schoolgirls in Camanongue.
One of the highlights was donating breast pads and heavy flow kits to new mothers at the Luena maternity hospital, ensuring they can manage postpartum needs with dignity, comfort, and hygiene. Together, we’re not just addressing menstrual health but empowering women with the resources and knowledge for long-term well-being and community health education.

The Days for Girls UK Country Coordinator joined hands with ANAH volunteers in Luena to sew their very first shield : a key component of washable menstrual kits. Together, they have laid the foundation for the Luena UK Sewing Team, working towards producing reusable health kits for the Moxico community.

This initiative empowers women with both skills and sustainable solutions, fostering health, dignity, and opportunity for many.
