Working To Support Dreamland Mission Hospital

As part of our 120-year anniversary celebrations we brought our suppliers and colleagues together for a superb trade show which raised £200k, a figure which Brewers are delighted to match to total £400k. This significant donation will be made to Dreamland Mission Hospital in Kenya to fund their new A&E department.

Work started on building the new A&E department earlier this year, and it is almost finished! With a few projects left to complete before the medical equipment can be installed, the new department will be ready to open this summer.

Ruth Nabie, Hospital CEO said:

"This A&E is a huge blessing to the community. There is no A&E easily available to patients currently. When patients are very sick they currently have a small bed which is a curtained off bit of corridor. Now we will be properly able to assess emergencies and transfer them easily to our x-Ray, CT scan and operating theatre. Thank you so much to Brewers for their support."

Dr Becky Nightingale, UK trustee and Health Programme Manager also said:

"The A&E will make a huge difference, as your visiting teams have seen people with broken legs or those who can’t breath are treated in the same area as someone with a mild flu. There are no GP service in Kimilili so everyone comes to the hospital. We need to be able to separate and treat those who are very sick and those who are not. This A&E will provide oxygen, emergency drugs, a resus room and save many lives. We so grateful. The equipment is due to arrive in June and we hope to open the building by the end of July."

We cannot wait to share more updates with you soon!

Our Relationship With Dreamland Mission Hospital

Brewers have been supporters of Dreamland Mission Hospital since 2012, having the pleasure of watching the hospital grow for over a decade, both in size and in scope of the medical services they can offer. They now employ over 100 staff locally and treat 40,000 patients a year, providing specialist eye, orthopaedic and maxillofacial surgery. 

Our Relationship with Dreamland 1-1

Brewers and Dreamland Mission Hospital throughout the years:

Supporting communities in Africa.

DMH provides quality care at prices the rural community in the Mount Elgon and Bungoma county of Western Kenya can afford. The hospital is vital to the community as healthcare is hard to access in this part of Africa. 

For over a decade, Brewers have been sending small teams to visit and help with the hospital’s development in this remote corner of Kenya. Every year there is a new project or addition to the hospital to further support the local community.

Over the years, the hospital has grown both in size and in scope of the
medical services it can offer. 

We have built up a very special relationship with
the staff there including Dr Becky Nightingale, the UK trustee and health
programme manager, and the hospital CEO Ruth Nabie.

Dreamland and Brewers Relationship

“Brewers’ support has been extraordinary. The first donations allowed a small health clinic to transfer into a hospital. Brewers provided funds towards to the first operating theatre and new wards, this kick started an amazing growth. The hospital has gone from 14 staff and a few small clinic rooms into a 90-bedded, 130-staff facility. This has transformed the healthcare that the community around can receive. 

The ongoing partnership is so special, meeting the Brewers team every few years and have a new painting project is such morale boost for our staff and the local community. The team are always excellent, our staff enjoy working with them and we hope that your team learn from us. We are extremely grateful for the partnerships and the huge difference it has made to community, so we look forward to welcoming the next team.”


Dr Becky Nightingale UK trustee and Health Programme Manager.

“Brewers are such a blessing to this hospital and the community, the team really bless the hospital and the patients. The team encourage our staff and have made sure our hospital stays looking very smart. The regular fundraising and support for work we do means that we can continue to grow and develop the hospital in line with our stakeholders. We don't know how to thank you enough for the support you have given IcFEM Dreamland Mission Hospital, we hope and pray another team will come soon. Asante Sana.”
