Trip to Gambia

Marje and Liz are now almost packed and ready to go to The Gambia tomorrow, Friday November 19th 2010. They are going for ten days, and have a very long list of things to do while there...! First on the agenda is to help Sankung at the port of Banjul retrieving the latest shipment, getting it through customs and then upcountry. It should have arrived a few weeks ago but unfortunately the container ship had to call into Antwerpp for repairs. Which has meant that Sankung has been unable to distribute the supplies as yet, but it should all get to the village during the next few days, and can then be taken to the various schools and hospital as intended.

Skills Centre

The Skills Centre is currently having a tiled floor laid, this will be a big improvement to the concrete floor, and will help to make it easier to keep clean.

The excercise books have been purchased and delivered to both Toniataba and Fonkoi Kunda schools.

The shipment is due in Banjul,the capital and port of The Gambia. This will be delivered over the next week to the schools we support,Soma Hospital and Soma Red Cross.
