Story

I’m not going to run a race, climb a mountain or anything else to raise money this time. Instead, I am simply going to STAY HOME AND SMILE. Hope that’s ok…

My chosen charity is APOPO...

The APOPO scent detection rats, nicknamed 'HeroRATs', help to rid the world of landmines and tuberculosis –returning safe land back to communities for development, and freeing people from serious illness so they can get back on their feet.

When I visited the centre I was so impressed with the work they do and could not think of a better cause to support. I have changed my monthly direct debit to help support them. Every penny donated to APOPO is making sure that they can solve pressing humanitarian challenges like landmines and tuberculosis. They help people to live, work, and play without fear.

Their website is awesome and I have provided a link below. Even if you don't donate please check out the work that they do:
