Our names are Oliver, Elizabeth and Ryan. We are 2 Young Leaders and an Explorer Scout; we are raising money to go to Uganda with a contingent of Berkshire Scouts.We will be going to Uganda at the end of July 2019 and camping for three weeks whilst we help build and repair buildings in a community.

Young people and leaders from across the Berkshire County will continue to make a real difference to local and rural communities in Uganda as well as developing their own personal and Scouting skills.

Project Africa is a long-term international community development programme. Berkshire Scouts are supporting schools, teachers, and local communities to help secure a good education, and a good start in life, for local children from poor rural communities in Africa.

In addition to building projects and other material support, the project has also provided funds for teacher wages as well as sponsoring some individual school children. Project Africa also funded electric power for the first time at the Bukeka Children's Centre.

young people supporting young people!
