Alison says: I am celebrating my 60th birthday this July - I know! I can't believe it either!

Instead of presents can I ask to make your presence felt in donating towards the building of Hope House (Enju Ya'Masiko) in the Kanungu District of South West Uganda . Fuelled by the vision and passion of our friend Jessica Holland (below), Hope House will be an adapted foster home for children who have no parents or family members that can care for them. They will be given a safe place to live and stay with a dedicated and trained team of carers to help grow children, allow them to thrive and receive an education or vocational training.

And THANK YOU so much for donating.
