Africa Live takes a trip to the barber shop to discuss the health service[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
On Thursday 7 July, Africa Live is in Milton Keynes and Dar es Salaam, with BBC Three Counties and Kiss FM, Tanzania, as part of our week-long community conversations.
We are in a traditional talking place - the barber's shop - to discuss the thing that everyone, everywhere wants to talk about. What can you expect from your health service?
The British and African health services are now so interlocked and the NHS fills more and more of its vacancies with staff from Africa.
About 12,500 doctors currently registered to work in Britain are from Africa.
And, over the last six years, nearly 16,000 African nurses have registered to work in the UK.
We will also be joining up with doctors and nurses in Tanzania to explore how this brain drain is putting a strain on health systems and asking what can be done about it.
We're asking:
What health services are available to you? How has the brain drain affected you?
