A GROUP of dedicated young women in Ward 1, Matobo, is actively participating in the construction of a much-needed local clinic.
Their selfless efforts aim to improve access to health care services for the community, particularly for women of childbearing age who currently have to travel long distances to reach the nearest health center.
“We’ve been actively involved in the construction of Kafusi- Manuka clinic, gathering building materials and participating in various tasks,” said Ntombi Sibanda, a young volunteer. “This clinic will make a significant difference in our lives.”
The community is working towards completing the clinic by 2025, which will provide essential primary health care services to the local population.
“This project is not only about improving health care access but also about creating development opportunities for our community,” said Thembelani Moyo.
Through initiatives like “food for work,” community members are coming together to contribute to the construction effort.
The clinic’s completion will not only enhance the health and well-being of residents but also boost the local economy.
This initiative is one of the development projects that the ward seeks to focus on as they plan for the 2025 financial year.
