Medi Tech Trust
Medi Tech Trust is a UK-based charitable incorporated organisation (registration number 1157837)[3], established in 2002[1]. It focuses on providing medical equipment, surgical supplies, and training to healthcare facilities globally[4][5].

Activities and initiatives
The Trust operates through donations of medical equipment to institutions in low-resource settings, including war zones and regions across Africa, Sri Lanka, and Ukraine[4]. Its mission emphasizes "changing lives through donating equipment and providing training," with specific efforts directed toward general practice surgeries in East Sussex, UK, alongside international partnerships[4].

In 2021, Medi Tech Trust launched MediGive, a platform enabling individuals and organisations to donate surplus medical equipment and consumables directly to global recipients[4][5]. The initiative reflects its commitment to redistributing resources efficiently while reducing waste[5].

Collaborations
The Trust became the inaugural charity member of InterSurgeon, a network promoting international surgical collaboration[4]. Through this partnership, it supports efforts to enhance surgical care standards worldwide, aligning with shared goals of improving medical accessibility[4].

Governance
Managed by voluntary trustees, including founder Bob Lewis, the organisation maintains a low public profile despite its extensive reach[4]. Lewis, previously an educator, transitioned to humanitarian work after initiating efforts to procure medical equipment over two decades ago[4].
