Margaret Birse and Niaroo Maternity Hospital, Malawi

That this House recognises the remarkable generosity of Margaret Birse, of Arbroath, who ran the Niaroo guest house for many years and, following her death in April 2022, left over £650,000 to the Dalitso Project; notes that this gift is now funding the construction of the Niaroo Maternity Hospital in Kambilonjo, Malawi, providing vital maternity care in a rural community where childbirth can be life-threatening; and further notes that Margaret Birse's legacy will save countless lives and stands as a lasting tribute to her compassion and commitment to supporting the most vulnerable.
