The PCG is doing good outreach work in the north in conjunction with the government of Ghana.
We did not have time to visit the Doctor's Hospital and Nursing School in the town of..(need my map) that is 2.5 hours east of Bogla right at the corner of Ghana and Togo, but based on the information shared with me - if LWW does put expand beyond 1 site in the north, this regional hospital would have to be on the list to consider. Dan is going to submit a LWW survey for the regional hospital.
The PCG has numerous clinics around Bogla in addtion to the eye medical center.
In Tamale, the Dutch have built a really nice looking hospital that serves Tamale and the surrounding area. There is also a government hospital and several clinics. In Tamale, the PCG has 4 churches and numerous schools.
Outside of Bogla is a pretty good size reservoir built by the Ghana Water Company. This reservoir and subsequent treatment plant serve as much of Bogla as it can - the contraint being where the Ghana Water Company pipe is and is not. Even though the water is treated with chlorine, the people of Bogla don't trust the water - so those that can buy water for drinking.
