The Malawi Rehab Centre was set up in 2007 by a Trust of passionate local patrons, the Dept of National Parks & Wildlife and members of the Born Free Foundation.

The centre depends on donations and money paid by visitors who do a two hour tour.
Students will be hands on feeding the orphans around the clock at various times of the year.

Baby vervet monkeys must learn how to feed. They can cry for their mother for a couple of days when they first arrive until they have stabilised.

The animals need to be fed daily and their cages/enclosures kept clean.

Students can help with the rehabilitation process – introducing new animals to enclosures and the release of animals at release sites.

Priority is given to Vet students doing their EMS and they can assist the vet with checking the new arrivals, injuries, sickness etc.
