15 - It takes a village to deliver a cure

17 year old Noor is from a close knit community. Several years ago, she stepped on a nail whilst playing at school. The wound never healed, growing increasingly deep and infected, causing Noor to drop out of school when the smell became too much. This wound turned out to be the catalyst for a long, confusing journey for Noor and her family, as they sought treatment from large medical centres, whilst trying to find enough money to pay for expensive treatments and juggling the pressures from their community.
But all along, the cure was just up the road from their home, in the small local health clinic and best of all, it was free.
