Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page in celebration of our wedding. We're really concious that in comparison to many people in the world we are already very rich and as part of our celebrations we'd like to do something for those people who can hardly imagine what our lifestyle is like.

Digging and constructing a 100ft well will make a huge difference to an entire village in rural Kenya. With no clean water nearby, it falls to the women and girls to walk miles to the nearest river - often repeating the journey several times a day. But with a well in the village, the supply of clean fresh water close by means that women can work and contribute to their family's income.It also means that girls can go to school regularly and receive a good education that will help them get a job in the future.

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 - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
