Story
Hello and itye nining! 🇺🇬 👋🏼
I’m a wellbeing specialist, volunteering my time in different parts of the world, offering free health advice and consultation in areas that really need it. I'm also getting involved in anything else I can help with while I'm there. This might be teaching children or cooking family meals!
One of the areas I travel to is Northern Uganda, where local communities and schools are striving towards better standards of living and opportunities for themselves and others. They still go and collect water from the boreholes each day, they still walk two hours to school so they can learn, they also have drive and ambition to take better care of their mental state whilst dealing with all that life in Uganda holds for them.
My first step was to meet people in the local communities, hear their stories, find out what they need and how they'd like me to help. This was such an emotionally powerful experience and there is so much that needs to be done and I'd love to keep giving my time and resources to be a part of their progress towards a more positive future. They have very few external resources to keep themselves happy and healthy and are eager learn to improve their lives however they can. I want to help them do that 💛
I’m self funding this trip and hope to continue offering free support for people in Uganda and other parts of the world for the longer term, in order to build positive wellbeing as part of their daily lives and for the future. I'd really appreciate any amount you can give to help fund this voluntary work. Thank you so much. Your kindness will make a huge difference to people's lives where they really need it and I'm grateful of your support 🙏🏽
(Justgiving is simple, quick and secure and all donations go directly to funding this work)

10 months agoYES! We passed the half way point for fundraising this charity trip and I'm so pleased, it really helps and every pound makes a difference. To put things into perspective, I'll be taking supplies out next time and every few pounds you donate could be a pair of shoes, or a cap, or a t-shirt for a child. They are so very grateful for everything we take for them and it really doesn't cost much to touch the life of someone special. Thank you so much, you are all super stars and and are positively impacting people in Africa who really need it 💛
