On the 8th January I will be flying out to Kenya to take part in a 2 month volunteering programme with Camps International. Camps International is an organisation that is affiliated with The Camps Foundation - a registered UK charity. The organisation operates across four continents to solve global problems on a local scale, by working hand-in-hand with local communities to improve their way of life.

During this expedition the organisation will be visiting Tsavo for 6 weeks and Muhaka for 2 weeks, where we will be helping the camp communities in several ways.

In Tsavo I will be helping to improve school infrastructure and facilities by building new classrooms or toilet blocks, making desks or erecting gabions to counteract soil erosion, interacting with school children and supporting teachers in improving English speaking in the local schools, and helping with wildlife conservation project work in the Rukinga sanctuary by making elephant deterrent fences.

In Muhaka I will be working on improving a traditional house in the village by helping with flooring, painting or plastering to improve living standards for a family in need.

I will be raising money to fund my journey, any donations will be much appreciated. I would be grateful of any amount that will help me make a difference with this amazing organisation. Thank you for your help!
