My dad has been visiting Monze in Zambia for at least the past 20 years. When he first went my son George wrote to him (well sort of as he was too young to speak) and we enjoyed hearing about him and his friends in Zambia. He initially went with a charity to help with local projects at a hospital and then at a school. The school was run by a wonderful woman Mrs Sianga who in particular was concerned about local orphans from AIDS. The school not only provided quality education but also somewhere that cared and a meal a day was provided.

Many children in Zambia have to work as the families are very poor and there are also many health problems in families. Pizz School is a lifeline for many. Many students have gone on since my dad started supporting the school to get better jobs and go to university. I want to go out with my dad soon but will raise money for now to support this great cause.

My first Solo Parachute jump will be on Saturday 7th October or Sunday 8th October. I am nervous but excited. I am funding this jump myself so 100% of money donated will go to the Charity Transformation Through Education which will fund this School in Monze.
