UK charity, Muntada Aid has confirmed its flagship project, Little Hearts, is in Libya this month to help children with heart defects. It is the fourth time the Little Hearts team has visited Libya and in the three previous trips, the project has treated 153 children for various congenital heart defects. Little Hearts is Muntada Aid’s flagship project and was launched in April 2012. The charity provides free life-saving heart surgeries to children with congenital heart defects from underprivileged backgrounds irrespective of gender, race or religion. In poor underdeveloped countries, the lack of specialised medical infrastructure means babies born with congenital heart defects have little or no access to necessary treatment.
