Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

The Albaraca Nursery School provides nursery education for 150 children between the ages of three and seven.  It is located in Sukuta, a medium-sized town in The Gambia, West Africa.  There is no state provision of nursery school education in The Gambia, so the Albaraca Nursery School provides an important service to the community.  The word "Albaraca" means "Thank you" in the local Mandinka language.

The school is funded almost entirely by donations and sponsorship in the UK and has been established as a UK Registered Charity since 2001. 

We have selected this particular charity because it is very small and completely non-profit making. All monies raised go to the children and their families and a relatively small investment in time effort and money from us will make a very big difference to the recipients.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Along with other work colleagues I will be completing the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge. A 25 mile walk up and down the 3 highest peaks in Yorkshire in 12 hours.  I would be very grateful if you would be willing to sponsor me so we can raise as much money as possible for this wonderful little school

So please dig deep and donate now.
