Hellooooo!

This page is to raise money for a charity I am going out to Uganda with this 
summer called Bristol-Bweyale Action Project. 

Here is some info about the charity:

Bristol-Bweyale Action Project is a student-run registered charity working in 
Bweyale, Uganda. This district received hundreds of internally displaced people 
who settled here when fleeing the war and rebels in Northern Uganda. The 
district is now safe since the end of the war in 2005 but is still dreadfully 
overcroweded, meaning that its schools are filled to capacity with under-trained 
teachers and a significant lack of resources.

For the last four years, B-BAP has sent volunteers to work in schools in Bweyale for
a month to teach lessons, run activities and play games and sport to remind 
children, some of whom were child soldiers, what it is like to be a child again.

We administer the charity and organise the projects ourselves. We are self-funded 
and all the money we have raised goes towards teaching materials, sports 
equipment and a fund for future building projects in Bweyale.

In order to raise money I took part in the Bath Half Marathon last month and will 
be running in the Bristol 10K on May the 10th as well as hopefully completing a
sponsored bike ride across France in June.

Any sponsorship or donations to the charity would be really wonderful and make 
such a difference to these childrens lives.

Thank you very much!
