Access Afya is a social enterprise based in Nairobi that delivers primary healthcare to the poorest communities living in informal settlements.

Our team is bound together by a common, compelling purpose to redefine how people everywhere can access healthcare, and living our shared values of self-drive, integrity, resilience, reliability and empathy.
