About NATURE AFRICA
Our History
In 1997, co-founder and CEO Brian Iredale first volunteered in Africa. During this
time Brian witnessed first hand the high level of poverty and illness in Uganda.
Once back in Ireland, Brian decided to study paediatric nursing, which would
enable him to return to Uganda and offer better assistance to HIV infected
children.
In 2002, Brian realised that he could try to do something small to assist the
many orphans and vulnerable children directly affected by the HIV epidemic
who were not gaining access to any services from government institutions
or NGOs.
In 2003, Nurture Africa was co-founded by Ugandan lady Nakawunde Annet,
Irishman Brian Iredale and concerned Ugandan youth, who met when Brian was
volunteering in Uganda in 1997. They focused the organisation upon providing
access to healthcare and education for the most vulnerable children within
the communities the organisation would operate in, in Uganda.
