The Organisation
Catherine Hamlin Fistula Foundation (CHFF) supports Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia, providing life‑changing treatment to women affected by obstetric fistula — a devastating childbirth injury that can leave women incontinent and facing stigma, isolation and loss of dignity.
Founded by Australian doctors Catherine and Reg Hamlin, Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia treats and prevents fistula through specialist care, education and midwifery training.
