Frequently Asked Questions
Where to find us, what we offer, what it costs and how to support the work.
Where is the Achikondi clinic located?
Our main clinic is in Area 23, Lilongwe. We also run two clinics in Nkhata Bay, opened to reach rural families in the north of Malawi.
What maternal and child health services do you provide?
Skilled delivery, antenatal care, postnatal care, family planning, under-five services and immunisation, ART provision, counselling, cervical cancer screening and integrated health services.
Is there emergency transport for a mother in labour?
Yes. A 24/7 ambulance is on hand to rush mothers and newborns to Kamuzu Central Hospital when every second counts.
How much does it cost to deliver at Achikondi?
We use a mixed-income, sliding-scale fee model: women pay what they can afford and no woman is turned away. The income is reinvested into staff, services and facilities rather than taken as profit.
How long has Achikondi Women Community been operating?
Since 2008. In that time no mother or child has lost their life under our care.
Do you offer cervical cancer screening and HIV (ART) services?
Yes. Cervical cancer screening and ART provision are part of our integrated health services, alongside counselling for individuals and families.
How can I support or partner with Achikondi Women Community?
Call or WhatsApp +265 888 893 661, or email achikondiclinics@proton.me. Partnerships and grants help us reduce reliance on donor funding and keep services affordable.
