Every year, thousands of lives hang in the balance, with a silent and deadly threat lurking in the shadows.

Snakebite, an ignored condition, continues to wreak havoc on the most vulnerable communities and across Africa.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has recognized this urgent crisis, labelling it as a highest neglected tropical disease, demanding our immediate attention.

It’s a harrowing reality for countless individuals, predominantly affecting the poorest and most marginalized members of society.

Shockingly, an estimated 138,000 lives are lost globally each year due to snakebite, and over 500,000 suffer permanent disabilities, disfigurement, or mental trauma as a result.

In Kenya, snakebite accounts for a staggering 44.8% of all human-animal conflict cases, leading to 43.1% of all fatalities and 76.9% of all injuries.
