NATIONAL CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
The year 2018, will remain a memorable year for APDK, as we were privileged and honored to host the H.E. Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta, C.G.H., the President
of the Republic of Kenya and Chief of the Defense Forces during our 60th Anniversary Celebrations on 23rd August 2018 at APDK Rehabilitation Centre, Nairobi with the Theme “60 Years of Promoting Disability Inclusiveness towards Sustainable Development”.
The President in his speech’s during our 60th Anniversary, stated that the estimation of data of Persons with Disability has been difficult to establish as it ranges between 5% and 15%. He noted that these disparities pose a major challenge that needed to be resolved urgently. He stated that the government will ensure that the Kenya Housing and Population census (KHPC) 2019, accurately and authoritatively determines the population of persons with
disability with specifics to the particular disability being registered
As part of the key milestones to note, the Board of Directors reviewed and developed various policies to activate an enabling environment for effective and efficient service delivery to Persons with Disabilities. Secondly, the Board activated Research & Innovation and the Resource Mobilization committees to ensure that evidence based support services are provided to the communities.
As part of implementing our Strategic Plan 2017 – 2020, the Board initiated new partnerships with British High Commission, Chinese Embassy, French Embassy, AMPARO from Berlin among other partners in scaling up service provision.
Following the devastating flooding that we experienced in our country from the month of March 2018, APDK in collaboration with Christoffel Blinden Mission (CBM) and Kenya Red Cross Society (KRCS) undertook a 6-months' Emergency Response Project that targeted Inclusive Humanitarian Assistance to 1,302 households in Marigat Baringo South Baringo County.
It gives me pleasure to report that Eldoret Branch with support from Global Civic Sharing was able to construct and equip an Orthopedic Workshop within Uasin Gishu County Hospital.
In spite of difficult economic times being felt globally, APDK remained afloat due to support from our development partners and well-wishers who remained committed in our vision. We are indeed indebted to Kindernothilfe, CBM and Polio Hilfe among other partners and individuals who have over the years enabled us accomplish what you will read in this report.
I take this opportunity to appreciate organizations that responded positively to our appeal during our 60th Anniversary among them being Embassy of the People's Republic of China in Kenya, Kengen, Nairobi Stock Exchange (NSE), Lotto Premiere Betting, Coke Cola Bottling Limited and Sir Henry’s.

INTRODUCTION
Founded in 1958 and hence celebrating 60 year of existence, APDK has remained focused on its vision of promoting an inclusive society where Persons with Disabilities enjoy equal rights and have access to affordable rehabilitation services as stipulated in
the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD).
Our service delivery which is based on philanthropy, continues to rely on support from the donor community, corporates, the government, communities and individuals on service delivery and strengthening of rehabilitation services in government hospitals. Our tribute goes to among others;
Christoffel Blinden Mission (CBM) for continued support to our physical rehabilitation programs which are community based for the last 4 decades and also at one point seconded one of their staff, Mr Hubert Seifert who served APDK for 3 decades as our Coast Branch Manager and later as our National Director before being recalled back to serve as their Global Livelihood Advisor. Through support from CBM, APDK was able to secure funding for the Construction of a 7000 sqft. Rehabilitation Centre with modern therapy facilities and hence moving its operations from the city center to Westlands. Roachling Foundation through CBM constructed a Rehabilitation Clinic and an Orthopaedic Workshop in Siaya County Referral Hospital for our Siaya Branch- Tumaini/Hope Rehab Clinic.
Kindernothilfe’s (KNH) support made it possible for us to implement a Comprehensive Community Based (CCBR)program using the World Health Organization (WHO) CBR matrix in the informal settlement areas of Mukuru and Pumwani of Nairobi, for the last 2 decades. The CCBR was introduced to complement our mobile clinic services and to mainstream disability issues within the community. KNH also supports our rehabilitation service which include surgical intervention in our APDK Rehab Clinic located in Mombasa.
Polio Hilfe and Prof. Heiss’s family through the efforts of Mr Hubert Seifert enabled us to construct and equip Orthopaedic workshops within the government district hospitals in Embu, Kisii, Nakuru, Kisumu and a rehabilitation clinic in Busia. They have also continued to support our APDK Rehab Clinic in Mombasa.
USAID supported us in building and equipping our wheelchair workshop in Nairobi and offered training on WHO Wheelchair Guidelines. Through these partnerships with USAID, APDK became the first local organization to offer trainings and wheelchair services using the WHO Wheelchair Guidelines. These locally manufactured wheelchairs are tailored-made to enhance the mobility of persons with wheelchair while taking into consideration the medical condition and environmental needs of the users.
Standard Chartered Bank has continued to collaborate with us in ensuring that Persons with Disabilities are not left behind in sports by allowing their participation in the Annual Standard Chartered Marathon.

1.0 HEALTH In 2018, APDK, CBM and Red Cross joined hands to offer an Inclusive Humanitarian Assistance to Persons with Disabilities affected by the devastating floods that began in the month of March and continued to June. The Emergency Response project which was a 6-months project from June to December 2019, targeted inclusive humanitarian assistance for 1,302 households in Marigat, Baringo South. The project was implemented by our Nakuru Branch and assessment carried out in Sidian Camp-42 clients, Illingua Health center-46 and Salabani Camp-50). Project partners had inception and debrief meeting after each clinic to share lessons learnt/challenges experienced during planning and implementation of the clinics and plan for the next outreach. These open assessments encouraged parents with children with disability not to hide their children and the community was trained on Humanitarian Hands on Tools (HHOT).
Challenges encountered in Emergency Response Project included lack of information, negligence, poor infrastructure, stigma, lack of Specialized services, lack of representation, vulnerability to attacks and difficulty in mobility. Disability needs on the ground are enormous. Thus there is need to strengthen partnerships and collaboration with ALL partners for more impact.
1.1 Health Promotion and Prevention
APDK collaborated with the Ministry of Health(MOH) in the National Polio Immunization campaigns in Nairobi Regional Hub and Upper Eastern regional hubs reaching a total of over 3,568 children among them were 1,292 Children with Disabilities. This is in line with the Health Strategy of Early Identification and Intervention of Disabilities.
We also participated in the MOH Awareness Events which included; National Immunization Days, World Occupational Therapy Day, Global Hand Washing Day, National Calendar events (Day of African Child, International Day for PWDs among others) to strengthen awareness on PWDs rights and Inclusion.
1.2 Medical Care
APDK organized several activities as built-up activities for our 60th Anniversary among them was a 2-day Medical Camp at Ambira Sub County Hospital organized by Friends of Ugenya, where the Branch fully participated in provision of disability/ rehabilitation services including fitting of 6 mobility aid to needy clients. The total client turnout was 44 people. Coast Branch held a Medical Camp in collaboration with the county government and ‘Help a Child Face Tomorrow and KPNA.

1.3 Rehabilitation services
APDK through its network of 10 branches reached a total of 72,581 clients; this was made possible through APDK's Static Clinics, CBR and Community Outreach Clinics, with support from development partners, National and County Governments who have continued to second Rehabilitation Health Workers, Counsellors, Nutritionists and Nurses who assist in both facilities based service delivery.
APDK in partnership with A.I.C CURE International Children Hospital – Kijabe and Bethany Kids Hospital, managed to provide specialized Orthopedic and Neurosurgeon services to a total of 4,673 clients. The partnership has greatly provided a decentralized specialized services to Persons with Disabilities. This signifies a 14 % decline due to reduction of funding for Mobile Outreach Clinics by development partners and the exit in Mukuru in Nairobi. However, the Organization is moving towards targeted impact programming focusing on intervention approach.
APDK participated in the National World Day of Remembrance for Road Accident Victims held in Nakuru at Sachangwany along Nakuru Eldoret Highway that was organized by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA). This is a partnership between National Council for Persons with Disabilities (NCPWDs), CBM, County Government of Nakuru and APDK.

Clubfoot can be cured a Case Study of Tataiana Nyaboke with Bilateral Idiopathic CTEV Tatiana was born on 9th November 2017, to Ruth Kerubo & Osca Orisi both parents were students at Kisii University. They hail from Nyamira County.
When Tatiana was born the parents were very shocked and scared when they noticed that their new Angel's feet were twisted inwards a condition they later learnt was clubfoot (bilateral idiopathic CTEV).
Tatiana was brought to APDK Clinic when she was two weeks old. This was after one of their friends referred them to APDK Clinic in Kisii Branch for treatment. She was assessed and enrolled in the Club Foot Care Clinic. Both parents were taken through a counselling session and treatment on the child commenced. Tatiana received serial casting every week.
After the third cast, the parents were very encouraged to see their child responding well to the treatment and were relieved to learn that their child will not have to live with a disability. Four months later in February 2018, a minor procedure referred to as Tenotomy was performed on Tatiana before being put on abduction Braces (FAB) to maintain the corrected foot.
Currently, Tatiana’s Feet are fully corrected, only applying night splints (Abduction Braces) for 12 hours to prevent the corrected foot from recurrence which may occur when the child is still below 4 years of age. Her parents are very grateful and they have gone back to school which they had stopped after Tatiana was born. They are happy with the progress and they say, “Long live APDK”.

CASE STUDY OF DIANA AKINYI.Diana Akinyi,16 years old was identified after a referral by the local administration during the end of CBM project evaluation in Siaya County Hospital in July 2018. Diana hails from Ukwala Sub County and is an orphan who lives with her grandmother. Diana had unconfirmed severe back pains which were managed traditionally using herbs in a nearby village. The family believed that the girl had a bad omen. The type of treatment offered to her only worsen her condition.
After assessment at APDK Clinic, Diana was diagnosed With Spinal Cord Injury (Lumbar 2) with paralysis of the Lower limb. Her main challenge was how to get to school and also back problems (ambulation challenges). Her mode of transport to school was on motorbikes at a cost of Ksh 80 per day, which the family often could not afford leading to her missing out on learning at Sigweng ka ruoth primary school in Busia.
Diana had been promised wheelchairs several times by various people including politicians and none of those promises were met.
After assessment APDK Rehab Team prescribed Diana a Standard Tricycle due to the good function of her hands. Through CBM Support we were able to provide Diana with an appropriate tricycle in October 2018 which enabled her to wheel herself to school every day. The tricycle has also helped her to exercise and strengthened upper limbs. With this mobility appliance her attendance in school and social life has greatly improved in third term.
Diana's Class Teacher appreciated APDK Busia Branch. Thank God you are here to help my pupil Diana Akinyi who has always
been having difficulty coming to school, walking around, and participating in school activities .

Case study Hezron OmondiHezron was born 40 years ago in Oriang, Homa Bay County. He was diagnosed with LLD (Lower Limb Discrepancy) secondary to Mild Post-Polio Paralysis. His parents did not understand his condition early, so Hezron did not join school at the right age like his peers because of his inability to walk independently. He began his physical therapy at Kitera Hospital. This Therapy helped him a lot because he was able to walk but with some difficulties. Omondi dropped out of school after Class 8 due to his parent’s inability to finance his high school education. He was enrolled at a Vocational Training Centre and later learnt carpentry at his uncle’s workshop. He was identified at APDK’s Livelihood meeting at Oriang Disabled Group by our Field Officer. He became an active member of the group where he received basic training on entrepreneurship and start saving. He was able to save Ksh.10, 000 and requested a loan of 30,000. He then moved from his uncle’s workshop and opened his workshop.
Omondi makes good furniture which he sells to the local community and people at Oriang Center and Homa Bay County. After paying his loan within 7 months Hezron applied for another loan of Ksh 60,000 to boost his Business, his business has improved greatly. Omondi is not only an entrepreneur but a family man married with one wife and 2 kids. He is happy at how APDK has transformed his life through rehabilitation and Empowerment. He says, “Long live APDK”
