Riders for Health is a healthcare organization that provides services to the Ministry of Health and other organizations in Lesotho, a challenging country in terms of healthcare demand due to its remote and mountainous landscape. The non-profit company is based in Northampton, UK. The organization's services include preventative treatments, pre and ante-natal care, and healthcare delivery. The organization's impact studies have shown that using a systematic fleet management program can increase the amount of health services delivered to people at the last mile. The organization has created transport systems designed specifically for healthcare delivery in Lesotho. The organization believes that ongoing rider or driver training for mobilized health workers is essential to the successful operation of the health transport system. Riders for Health was founded in 1986 by Nicholas A. Pitts-Tucker, Andrea Coleman, Barry Coleman, and Randy Mamola. The CEO is Kayodi Ajayi.
