Today (Sunday June 20) YSLEEP a Charity that was founded by my Late Wife Mrs. Doreen Jestina Mengot nee Davis, and other Sierra Leone Women donated the sum of £3,000 for the rehabilitation of Ward 2 at the Connaught Hospital . This is a cancer treatment and chemotherapy Centre.

Doreen served as a nurse in the UK and was the Clinical Nursing Manager at a Specialist Centre for Multiple Sclerosis patients in Surrey. She later worked in Saudi Arabia as a Nursing Consultant attached to the King Fayed Hospital in Riyahd were she established a Community Outreach Unit for Women. She was also a victim of the dreaded Cancer and struggled with the disease for 7 years until her demise in 2018.
