Cargo for Save the Children Fund overseas aid.

Scenes of five trucks being loaded onto the cargo ship Anitra at Mistley quay. They are a tight fit as this smaller vessel has been chosen because it can access the shallower rivers of the Zambezi delta. Captain Peter Embleton of General Navigation & Commerce Co. explains that they visit Mozambique repeatedly and aim to reach the smaller communities particularly during the monsoon season. The trip will take 25 days. Besides trucks, the cargo includes medical supplies. It has been organised by a Felixstowe-based firm of shipping agents. The cargo is important to the Save the Children long-term development programme in Mozambique. The reporter was Surrey Beddows for this video made to be shown in a news story on Anglia Television early evening news / magazine programme About Anglia.
