Story

I know it wasn't long since I last asked you to dig deep into your pockets...but here I am once again - but for a different charity!

The long and the short story is that from September 2013, I will be moving to Rwanda to volunteer for up to 2 years as a teacher-trainer.  I will be going with an organisation called VSO.  You can find out more about them from the link on this page but their basic vision/aim is to send skilled workers out around the world to exchange skills/knowledge to promote sustainability.

The money that you donate will NOT be going to me as a volunteer (at least not directly) but back into the organisation to fund all the work that they do around the world.  Please do consider donating - it costs VSO roughly £30,000 to send a volunteer out for 2 years.  My target barely scratches the surface of that fee...

Please do get in contact with me if you would like to hear more about what I'm doing...

THANK YOU...now start getting out the plastic people! :)
