Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We urgently need your help to complete a school on the Thai-Burmese border. Weve worked with the community and partners to get it to this stage but we now need your help to get it over the line.

In a little over a decade since starting Building Trust we've built schools, homes and healthcare facilities for those forgotten or under-served groups globally. We've supported conservation facilities, wildlife rescue centres and numerous playgrounds and skate parks.

We've connected designers, engineers and builders with people in need, conservation groups, NGOs and governments to create life changing projects.

Now we need you to join us as we look to engage a wider audience with our work and goals, increasing our impact and reach. In 2024-25 we've asked people to fund raise on behalf of our projects and therefore with some trepidation I've agreed to run a marathon for the first time.

For more information on our work please do take a look at our webpage:
