During a tour of the hospital on Friday, the past president of Rotary Club of Belmont, Mr Obert Sibanda, said the club would provide drugs, computers, curtains, beds, stoves, paint and requirements.
“Our visit does not end today but we will be coming back as we continue to rehabilitate the hospital. We want a list of all the items that are needed,” said Mr Sibanda.
