Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and&nbsp;please don't laugh - I'm going to be silent for 12 hours on 12th November, 2011 from 9am to 9pm to raise funds for Omaleshe (Registered charity no SCO39501).</p> <p>Some of you may know that this charity was set up following my sister's year+ spent in Namibia.&nbsp; The charity helps support orphans, vulnerable children, children affected by the HIV pandemic and children with Special Needs in Namibia through dancing and drumming.&nbsp; Dancing is an effective approach to dealing with grief and sorrow and is a way of building up confidence and self esteem.&nbsp; It is also used as an informal and non threatening approach to promote self protection and awareness of abuse.</p> <p>Please help this amazing and successful work to continue by sponsoring me (and give the world a break from my voice).</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
