Imagine the vast, sun-drenched plains of Kenya, where the air hums with the promise of change. My son, Lewis, stands poised at the threshold of an extraordinary adventure, a four-week expedition that will etch itself onto his soul, and more importantly, leave an indelible mark on the lives of those he encounters. He won't just be a visitor; he'll be a builder, a friend, a lifeline. Picture his hands, calloused but determined, constructing sturdy desks for eager schoolchildren, transforming dusty classrooms into vibrant havens of learning. Envision him working alongside conservationists, digging life-sustaining watering holes for majestic elephants, their parched throats finding relief. He'll learn the ancient rhythms of the Maasai, sharing meals and traditions, building bridges of understanding. He'll help bring clean water to parched villages, a gift more precious than any we can imagine. He'll witness firsthand the stark realities of life in underserved communities, a world where our everyday conveniences—next-day delivery, overflowing supermarkets—are distant dreams. This journey is a crucible, forging empathy and action. It’s an opportunity for Lewis to not only witness the power of giving but to embody it. By supporting Lewis, you're not just funding a trip; you're investing in tangible, transformative change, helping him weave hope into the fabric of a community yearning for a brighter future.

I’ve shared some pictures from Lewis’s sponsored litter pick on Exmouth Beach. We ended up collecting three full bin bags of rubbish, which is such a shame to see so much litter.
