(This fundraiser is organised by my sister Ellen on my behalf as I am under 18)

Hi, my name is Archie, I’m 15 and I live in Bournemouth.

In July 2027, I will have the incredible opportunity to travel to Malawi, one of the poorest countries in the world, to volunteer through CRED with the support of the volunteer hub Butterfly Space. This trip is organised through my school, Oak Academy in Bournemouth, where I’m proud to serve as Head Boy.

While in Malawi, I will be volunteering in local schools and at a disabled centre, supporting children and families who face daily challenges that many of us could never imagine.

I need to raise £2,750 to cover the cost of the trip, including travel, accommodation, food, and essential project resources. Any funds raised beyond this amount will go directly towards the community projects, helping to provide toys, gifts, and much-needed supplies for the villages and centres we will be visiting.

This experience means so much to me, and I’m truly grateful for any support you can give.

Every donation, no matter the size, brings me one step closer to making this journey possible.

Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity.

Please Note - As I am under 18 Ellen(sister) will be handling all funds and making payments / donations due on my behalf
