Major Achievements in Kenya

With donations from all over the UK, here is a list of main help given:

  • Five containers shipped out to Kenya valued at £5 million:
    The first in 1998 contained medical equipment, supplies and school supplies an ambulance which is stationed at Turtle Bay Beach Club. Lots more medical equipment was shipped out along with old Dennis fire engine converted into a MOBILE CLINIC!
  • Eight Classrooms were built:
    Eight much needed classrooms were built in the poorest areas of Dungokundu and Kirepwe Island, thanks you all the generous help given by, The Park Primary school, Runcorn, Moore Primary School, Runcorn, St Chad's Comprehensive School, Runcorn, Ditton C of E Primary School, Widnes, and Halton High School, Runcorn.

  • Gede Polytechnic:
    By having desks made by the students, for the new classrooms that have been built, this helps other boys to learn a trade. Also the charity helps Gede Special Needs School and Gede Dispensary.
  • Mida Village
    In 2003/4 work done at Mida Village, near Krabuko Sokoke Forest, after the village had been almost razed to the ground by a herd of marauding elephants that destroyed vital crops and trees. Many villagers lost their lives through malnutrition.

    Action taken by the trust:
    Blankets given to the elderly and medical help arranged. 950 meters of water pipe laid to the village, maize seed, 200 cashew nut trees, passion fruit trees and many more plants provided plus 18 milking goats. Thanks to everybody who supported this project, without your help the children and their families would not have survived.

Special Projects

  • Moses is a young boy with hydrocephalus (water on the brain), who was initially given only three days to live. He is now doing well. The trust has provided him with new bedding and a commode.

  • Martha was abandoned at Malindi Hospital when she was a baby with spina bifida. She is now with a wonderful family and her needs are met through sponsorship. Now eight years old, she is a very determined little girl. The good news is she has started to walk, but she will need a lot of support for a long time.

Future Projects:

  • Four hundred people live on Kirepwe Island. Eddy and Shirley reported from the last trip in March 2005 that the tsunami had damaged one of the donated canoes. Without their canoes the islanders cannot reach the mainland. There are few resources on the island, very little food, no water and no medical help, so all these things have to be brought across in their canoes.
  • One of our next project; is to build a reservoir on Kirepwe Island. Many have drowned over the years just crossing for drinking water. If you would like to help this project please contact us.
  • The other is to help Kanani Village: there are about 1500 very poor people living here, with nowhere for them to grow vegetables as the land is coral. The community has struggled to build a nursery school; it has taken them over a year and it is still not completed. The primary children walk 4 miles to school if they are lucky enough to have a uniform, if not they cannot go to school. Please could you help the children to have a primary school at Kanani?
