Colin and I have been thinking about doing voluntary work in a developing country  for years and years and have decided it's now or never.  We've been accepted as volunteers with Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO) and we are looking forward to  a two year placement in Addis Ababa with some excitement and more trepidation.

VSO sends about 350 volunteers overseas every year from this country.  Our placement does not depend on us fundraising, but if you would like to help VSO send even more volunteers for this worthwhile cause - we would very  much appreciate your support.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Voluntary Service Overseas gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
