Story
Help Me and Sam Return to Kenya – Changing Lives Together
Last year, my eldest son William and I were given the opportunity to spend two unforgettable weeks volunteering in schools in Kenya.
We thought we were going to make a difference to the children we met.
The truth is... they changed us.
We met children who arrived at school every day with huge smiles despite having so little. We shared lessons, played games, helped in classrooms, laughed together and created memories that will stay with us forever. It was a powerful reminder that kindness, opportunity and hope can cross any border.
When we returned home, we both agreed on one thing...
This couldn't be the end.
Next May, I'm incredibly proud to be returning to Kenya, this time with my youngest son, Sam.
As a dad, there are lessons that can't be taught in a classroom. Compassion. Gratitude. Service. Understanding different cultures. Seeing the world through someone else's eyes.
This trip is about giving Sam those same life-changing experiences while continuing to support the incredible schools and communities that welcomed us so warmly last year.
To make this happen, we need to raise £5,000, which covers the costs of travelling to Kenya and taking part in the volunteer programme. Every pound raised helps make the trip possible and allows us to spend two weeks giving our time, energy and support where it's needed most.
Could your business help?
We're looking to partner with businesses that want to make a genuine difference.
Rather than simply making a donation, we'd love to take you on the journey with us over the next 10 months. We'll proudly recognise our sponsors across social media throughout our fundraising campaign, share updates from events, and continue showcasing your support while we're in Kenya and after we return.
It's a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate your commitment to supporting young people, communities and meaningful charitable work while helping us reach our goal.
If your business would like to become a sponsor, we'd love to hear from you.
Every donation matters
Whether you can give £5 or £500, every contribution moves us one step closer to returning to Kenya.
If you're unable to donate, simply sharing this page could help us reach someone who can.
Thank you for believing in us, for believing in this project, and for helping us give something back to a community that gave us so much.
Jimmy & Sam ❤️
