Story
5,000 people live on Tasso Island, in the estuary of the Sierra Leone River. They have no roads, hospital or running water. The Gladi-Gladi Trust has helped the islanders to build an Ecotourism Camp that will employ local people. In the other villages on the island, it is now installing tanks to store clean water, and negotiating to build a medical centre.Tasso Island
This is the well in one of the villages.
