As the New Year gets under way in earnest, planning for a return sailing mission to Vanuatu is starting to step up a notch !!
This will be Medical Sailing Ministry’s 4th sailing mission in eight years with volunteers now being recruited for each of the 8 Stages between May and November; in areas of dental, medical, optical and sailing.
Maybe you’d like to join us?! Well now is the time to apply.

We thank you for your interest and welcome your support and encouragement.
If you are not able to volunteer but would still like to enjoy something of the grass-roots Vanuatu experience then you might be interested in joining us on the 11 day [ddownload id=”4403″ style=”link” text=”2017 Vanuatu Supporters Tour”] in October.
By joining the Supporters Tour you will not only be contributing to local employment and village development but you will also be assisting Medical Sailing Ministries as they coordinate a National Oral Health Survey of Vanuatu; the first ever. A survey that will encompass 1% of the population (approx. 3,000 people), across 5 different age groups in both urban and rural locations on more than 30 of the country’s 63 inhabited islands.
It’s a big undertaking and with the recent withdrawal of Australian Federal Government funding to this vital, long-standing Vanuatu health program, it’s something we are seeking to do solely through volunteer-contributions, private donations and fundraising.
Again, we value your interest and support and encourage you to get on-board – in whatever way you can.
Smooth seas, fair breeze and look forward to hearing from you
