A BBC South Today feature first broadcast on August 10th 2021.
The report features some great interviews with Nancy, as well as some of our Nasio volunteers. Check it out below.
"I’m really grateful to the Nasio Trust programme because it is really changing lives for good. The Nasio Trust has really changed this community and really changed my life..."Eunice (supported for 6 years – now volunteering for Nasio)
This year, as families across the UK consider giving, it’s worth thinking not only of generosity but also of opportunity.
With the 2025 Budget under the new Labour government, a number of fiscal changes have made the case for charitable donations — such as those to The Nasio Trust — stronger than ever.
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.
We are thrilled to be celebrating a huge milestone — 2026 marks Nasio’s 25th Anniversary
Over the past 25 years, the Nasio Trust has supported thousands of families to break the cycle of poverty. Vulnerable children have been able to attend school, farmers have put food on the table, and thousands of patients have received high-quality care at our medical centre. We are incredibly proud to be at the forefront of lasting, transformative change in Western Kenya.
