Vessel Hospital Liasion Volunteers are a key link between hospitals, therapy tribe and the Vessel team. Our aim is to ensure that every hospital in Uganda has access to a VHLV to signpost and promote Vessel support services, training, resources and bereavement care guidance (where pplicable) enabling healthcare professionals to provide excellent bereavement care. We currently have 12 VHLV across Kampala and we are now expanding the program into Wakiso, Entebbe and Jinja,
