Hi and thank you for taking the time to visit my page and read my story. I was approached by kick4life with this opportunity to visit Lesotho in Africa. The charity use sport to transform the lives of disadvantaged children. As you know Sport is my life and has been since the age of 10 years, so this appealed to me straight away.
I have been in the fitness industry for 22 years and absolutely love what I do, predominantly helping people to change there lives to a healthy fitter one, whether this is for fitness, strength or mental well being. Sport can help people in so many ways and has helped me get through some dark times in my life. So being asked to help take my knowledge and love of sport to help disadvantaged children was something that I couldn't turn down.
Kick 4 Life use football {which is the most popular sport in Africa } to deliver life saving skills through games and activities to children in schools. Helping to educate the children about AIDS/HIV and providing screening and counseling for them. So my 10 day trip will consist of being trained by qualified coaches to deliver these life changing skills to the children in lots of schools around Lesotho, and i might have to play football LOL !!!!!
The Charity also provide intensive support to young children, helping them to gain Academic scholorships and a fit4work employability programme to gain and sustain employment.
Its an amazing charity and an even bigger opportunity for me to give something back and help. So if you could leave any donation to help me achieve the ultimate dream I would be forever grateful.
Lots of Love
