Dad/Nick met Bezzel when he moved to Malawi to start, what turned into, an unexpectedly long stay in Africa! During the week he worked on complex legal cases but in his free time he was involved in helping Bezzel develop his orphanage and school, in turn supporting the wider community.

On his return to the UK he continued to support Streetwise, along with countless other people who needed a helping hand.

We would like to raise this money, in his memory, so that more can be done on such a great cause.

Below is some more information about Bezzel and Streetwise Trust.

Thank you.

Streetwise Trust is a community-based trust operating in Mwambakanthu village on the outskirts of Kanengo, Lilongwe, Malawi.

Bezzel Makaya founded Streetwise Trust in 2015. Making arts and living on the streets in Harare, Bezzel was supported by an organization called Streetwise. Coming back to Malawi, Bezzel wanted to help other vulnerable people with his arts, engagement, and big heart.

Streetwise provides nutrition and schooling for almost 100 children from the community, several of them coming from vulnerable homes. 21 children are currently housed at the orphanage. Supporting the staff of 20 feeds into and assist the local community.

Every month they make beaded animals and figures for sale at markets in Lilongwe like the weekly markets at August House and the monthly Farmers Market at Woodlands.
