From village clinics to city schools, we stand where need meets opportunity - empowering people, restoring dignity, and building a more just world
At Global Connect, we don’t just respond to problems - we walk alongside people to co-create lasting change.
In Tanzania, we train frontline medics in trauma care where it’s needed most. In the UK, we prevent life-altering injuries in young athletes through education and outreach. And through ethical trade, we give farmers and families the tools to rise above poverty with pride and purpose.
Our mission is rooted in dignity, shaped by compassion, and powered by people - because true impact always begins with connection.
In Tanzania, medical emergencies are tragically common - but access to advanced trauma care is not. That’s why we work side-by-side with local hospitals in Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar to provide high-impact medical training that saves lives.
Through hands-on workshops, simulation labs, and mentorship from international experts, we’re equipping healthcare professionals with the skills, confidence, and tools they need to act fast and effectively in critical situations. Together, we’re not just treating injuries - we’re building a system of care that lasts.
This work isn’t about charity. It’s about equity. And it’s changing the trajectory of healthcare in communities that need it most.
We’re proud to be taking our mission one step further - with the development of our very own hospital in Tanzania.
This facility will serve not just as a place of healing, but as a centre of excellence for training, innovation, and community-led healthcare. It will provide essential trauma and orthopaedic services, while doubling as a teaching hospital - bridging the gap between learning and lifesaving practice.
Our goal is simple: to create a safe, sustainable space where local professionals lead, learn, and care for their own communities with excellence and dignity. With your support, this dream is becoming reality.
Injuries - especially those resulting from road traffic accidents - are one of the leading causes of disability in Tanzania. Yet many of these injuries are preventable with the right knowledge and interventions.
We’re committed to empowering communities through education on injury prevention - starting with practical workshops, public health awareness, and skills-based training for local leaders, schools, and clinics.
Whether it’s teaching road safety strategies or introducing protective practices in workplaces and schools, our injury prevention initiatives are designed to stop harm before it happens. Because saving a life isn’t only about treatment - it’s about stopping tragedy in its tracks.
The growing wave of ACL injuries - especially in young female athletes - can steal not just a season, but a future. These injuries are preventable. We deliver community-based prevention programmes that go beyond awareness, giving young people the tools they need to stay strong, agile, and injury-free. Because every child deserves to play, grow, and thrive without fear.
From football pitches to school gyms, we’re working with coaches, parents, and local partners to bring proven ACL prevention strategies into everyday routines. Through simple, science-backed practices, we’re safeguarding mobility, protecting futures, and shifting the culture around youth sports and injury.
We’re championing the next generation of orthopaedic excellence. We run high-impact training, mentorship, and research initiatives that help healthcare professionals stay ahead of the curve - and close to the communities they serve. Because world-class care should start at home.
Our ethical eCommerce venture is more than a shop - it’s a movement. By bringing you premium cashew nuts and (soon) Tanzanian spices and coffee, we’re creating a direct line between conscious consumers and changemakers on the ground. Every purchase supports fair pay, quality products, and real-world impact in healthcare and education.
Poverty isn’t just a lack of resources - it’s a lack of opportunity. In Tanzania, we support everyday entrepreneurs - farmers, artisans, and families - with training, tools, and microfinance to help them build something better. Our work doesn’t just lift individuals - it strengthens entire communities from the inside out.
Every job is more than income - it’s a doorway to independence, dignity, and hope. Behind each ethically sourced product is a woman rewriting her story.
In communities where opportunities for women are limited, we’re creating meaningful employment that offers more than just a pay cheque. We’re offering a fresh start - through safe, stable jobs that restore confidence, spark potential, and build brighter futures for women and their families.
When you shop with us, you’re not only choosing quality - you’re choosing empowerment. Your purchase helps women gain financial independence, break cycles of poverty, and reclaim their place as providers, leaders, and changemakers in their communities. Because when women rise, whole communities rise with them.
40% Women in Tanzania experience violence. Hope can be hard to find in the midst of abuse - but we refuse to look away. We stand with survivors of domestic violence, offering practical support, emotional care, and a safe path forward. With your help, we can be the steady voice that says, “You are not alone.”
