1000 miles during lockdown · 30 September 2020

SoA delivers projects in challenging environments, transforming the lives of some of the poorest people in Africa. Working with experienced people on the ground in four key areas: education, health, clean water and income generation, we help people to build fulfilling lives.

Story

Through lockdown I had been rebuilding fitness with my daily walk after my heart op and achilles injury. As I walk I am aware I do this for pleasure with a full stomach unlike our children in Africa who walk miles to school with no breakfast. Lockdown has been total in Uganda so no school , no lunch , no going to market to buy food, and of course no books and TV for home schooling. Without our events programme we have had to reduce our UK donation increasing the hardship of these familiies. I want to help provide the food and teaching they need so desperately.
