Pumwani Maternity Hospital in Kenya operates a vital human milk bank, providing donated breast milk to premature and critically ill babies like Baby Laurine, who was born at seven months weighing just two kilograms.

• On average, between five and ten babies receive donated milk daily at Pumwani.
• The human milk bank was established in 2019 with support from British aid.
• Pumwani is one of only a handful of facilities in sub-Saharan Africa and one of just three on the continent with an operational human milk bank.
