Story

This summer we will spend almost 3 weeks in one of these communities in Homs, Syria. We will be helping on a social project, run by the local community, which supports children and young people on an after school basis. We were particularly asked to teach English to Primary school aged children. There are also other projects run by our charity in Aleppo and Damascus, supporting the education and health & well-being of women, children and young people. If you would like to know more you can follow the links:
