We believe that every child has the right to shelter, food & love, one day at a time.

Story

Every single day, thousands of children in Malawi are orphaned or abandoned. By taking part in the notorious Great Knaresborough Bed Race we the 'Tomrods Are Go' team aka Adam Barton, Agnes Butowska, Laura Stephenson, Michelle Jepson, Sally Dixon, Sandra Malecka and Sarah Pritchard wish to raise a wider awareness of this issue and to provide additional necessary funds to help Open Arms Malawi to be there for even more of Malawi's vulnerable children. Surely every child has the right to life, survival and development. By supporting Open Arms Malawi you are providing medical attention, shelter, food and love to some of Malawi’s orphaned and abandoned children. Your donations allow the charity to give the children in their care the chance to grow up with the love of a family and the security of a home until they are fit enough to return to their communities.Thank you!
