Story
Hi I'm Miranda,
I am travelling to Kingstown, St Vincent and the Grenadines capital city, for 12 weeks in October 2017. I will be volunteering in an older persons care home, to support the home care staff to forge ahead in their project of updating current practices and home care provision for the older person. Thompson care home is a 20 bedded residence solely realiant on voluntary contributions and the goodwill of the local community.
I currently work as a carer and in my previous role as a nurse I have observed how vulnerable the older persons are hence, lead to my experience of volunteering to create national guidelines placing the older person at the centre of their own health, healthcare needs and well-being.

I will be volunteering with USPG (United Society Partners in the Gospel), a charity with long standing experience in this area of working within world-wide local communities. I am really looking forward to this opportunity and hope that I can make a difference.
Any donations that you can give to assist me towards reaching my goal of £8,000 for my travel costs to St Vincent and/or towards my up-keep and living expenses will be so much appreciated with heart felt thanks.
