Two Challenges: One Mission

This July, two members of the HoverAid team are taking on incredible cycling challenges to raise vital funds for our work in Madagascar.

Mobile Clinics – April’26

During April, our Madagascar Mobile Clinics (MMC) team continued bringing vital healthcare services to remote communities across Madagascar, reaching thousands of people who would otherwise have little or no access to medical care.

MMS Ampasinambo: May’26

Following our Mobile Medical Safari (MMS) in Sahakevo, the HoverAid medical team travelled directly to Ampasinambo to provide vital healthcare to another remote community with limited access to medical services.

MMS Sahakevo: May’26

The first of our double-header Medical Safari missions in May brought much-needed specialist healthcare to the remote community of Sahakevo, where patients had been waiting eagerly for the team’s arrival.

A New Milestone – Volambita Apr’26

Early last month, HoverAid achieved an exciting new milestone during our Medical Safari (MMS) in Beroroha – successfully delivering an additional mobile outreach clinic to the remote community of Volambita using our new hovercraft, FAITH.

WASH (Community Health Programme) – Mar’26

March was the busiest field month of 2026 so far for HoverAid’s Community Health and WASH Programme. Across the month, three major activities were carried out simultaneously: cyclone recovery assessments in Ambatoboeny, advance preparations in Beroroha, and visits to local partner communities in Soatana.

Together, these activities reflect the wide-ranging nature of the programme – supporting clean water, sanitation, community partnerships and resilience in some of Madagascar’s most remote areas.

Baby Avotra – Beroroha April 2026

This lady was in labour at her village some distance from the medical facility in Beroroha. The baby was in a transverse position, and the midwife in their village couldn’t deliver her and sent her to the Beroroha hospital.

Mobile Clinics – Mar’26

In March 2026, HoverAid’s Mobile Medical Clinic (MMC) teams continued delivering essential healthcare to remote communities across Madagascar – reaching hundreds of patients each week through a combination of full missions and day visits.

MMS Ambatolahy: March’26

Each year, HoverAid’s Medical Safari programme begins in Ambatolahy, bringing vital healthcare to communities where access to medical services is limited. In March 2026, our team once again travelled to the region to deliver consultations, surgery, diagnostics and treatment to hundreds of people in need.
