We believe that every child has the right to shelter, food & love, one day at a time.

Story

Every child has the right to life, survival and development. By supporting Open Arms you are providing medical attention, shelter, food and love to some of Malawi’s orphaned and abandoned children. Your donations allow us to give the children in our care the chance to grow up with the love of a family and the security of a home until they are fit enough to return to their communities.Thank you!

We started the walk as part of a group with the aim of reaching Malawi in 3 months but the group did not achieve its aim. We decided to continue the walk, just the two of us and our miniature schnauzer Hector. We have now completed 82% of the walk having survived the heat of the Sahara and the dangers of the Democratic Republic of the Congo all virtually of course. We are now nearing the border of Rwanda. 

Please support us if you can.
