From September 2010 we will be heading to Kratie Town in Cambodia to work with Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO).  We will be there for 26 months in total and during that time Gilly will be volunteering as a Teaching & Training Advisor.

This is part of a programme of work aimed at delivering teacher training and promoting greater levels of access and inclusion in education.  Education is widely considered to be fundamentally important in helping people to move out of poverty and key in helping countries in their development efforts.

Following the widespread killing of teachers under the Khmer Rouge and the subsequent population boom there are severe shortages of people who can train teachers in Cambodia, something that Gilly’s work will help to redress.

Currently Sam doesn't have a job to go to so any leads are most welcome...

You can read more about VSO's work in Cambodia here.  We hope we can help in our own small way, you can help too by making a donation, however small, to VSO to assist with their global development programmes.

Keep in touch with our progress via our blog/website and thank you for your support.
