Unfortunately, due to factors beyond my control,
the project which I was assigned to in Cambodia has had to be withdrawn by the
charity. The project I am now assigned to is working towards the same goals and
I will still make a real difference to a range of good causes.
To date, I have raised £3,900 towards the £5,100 needed to allow me to
volunteer. Your donations have been greatly appreciated!
The project I am now placed on offers:
- low & high ropes,
- rafting,
- kayaking or canoeing,
- sailing,
- solo wilderness experience,
- expedition hiking,
- camping,
- rock climbing or abseiling,
- navigation and orienteering,
- mental & physical challenges,
- group dynamics & team challenges
for children from townships, youth at risk, and individuals with educational
needs and disabilities.
The project aims to empower young South Africans with the character,
will, values and self-belief to live their lives to the full and to
consistently make the right choices.

about different cultures and that the key to cultural harmony is to stop
listening to stereotypes,
but rather to go up and
speak to
people of different cultures.” Shasthra-school girl from a township school.
The bases around south Africa which I will be placed will be in the following areas...
