So a zip line may not be seen as a challenge to everyone. But at the top of a quarry, being zipped in to travel 100mph with nothing but straps to keep you safe...  it IS a bit bonkers. So if you’re up for joining me, I’d much rather have some company and we can fundraise together. Otherwise, spare a few quid for a good cause and keep telling yourself anyone could do the worlds fastest zip line 😉 Read below to find out more about the school we’re supporting construct in Uganda.

School Construction/Renovation in Uganda

Education is fundamental right children deserve, yet across the world, at least 263 million children are not in any kind of education. That is roughly 61 million primary school children, 60 million lower secondary school children and 142 million upper secondary school children who are missing out on an education.A lack of education significantly reduces the future prospect of each child as they simply do not have the qualification or knowledge to better their position. Alongside that however, they also miss out on creating lasting social connections and basic skills that we take for granted.In Uganda, the introduction of universal primary education in 1997 greatly improved access but it did not improve quality. As the student population tripled between 1997 and 2014, more and more children started dropping out.
