We develop the skills of Saharawi refugees to tell their story through the arts

Story

In 2014 I watched a BBC 2  documentary on the plight of the Saharawi people in the refugee camps in Algeria.  The plight of these people really touched me and I have followed closely the events of these refugees.  This year I decided to do something about it and am in the process of retraining myself from long distance walking to running as I am going to attempt to run the Sahara marathon and raise funds to help towards the education of the young children in the refugee camps.  

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
