Hi everyone,

My name’s Charles and I’ve been selected to go to India next Halloween with the Saphara charity. Children facing poverty in India are at such a big disadvantage because of their lack of education, and in all, the conditions they are forced to live in! As a part of my journey I will be travelling with the Saphara team over to India to help out a few of those children who are slowly losing hope... English is a very strong language to learn and being able to help these kids with conversational skills, this will help them in becoming bilingual and ultimately this will aim to help create a brighter future for the children. I will be working with pupils from the age of 4 who in some cases have to walk 1-2 hours to even reach their school!! I am looking to raise £1000 and every little penny makes a huge difference.
