Basic education is something most of us take for granted. ..In rural Nepal, it isn’t…

I’ve never done anything like this before, but in early 2027, I’ll be joining a life-changing project with AidCamps International and colleagues from Dulux. I’m proud to be part of a volunteer team rebuilding a school in rural Nepal. Our work will improve learning conditions, help the school expand, increase enrolment, and reduce dropout rates—an issue that currently sees many students leaving after year 5.

This will be Dulux’s fourth project in the region over the past eight years, culminating in the opening ceremony of the new school buildings planned for February 2027.

This project relies entirely on both individual & group fundraising… We can’t do this without your donations…They are critical to provide a future education for hundreds of kids that otherwise wouldn’t receive one – isn’t that worth it?

As a local business or a local resident, I would be so grateful if you could support this worthwhile cause with either a donation or a prize for the quiz night, such as experiences, tickets, trips, products, vouchers, or any other unique prizes to help raise essential funds towards my individual target of £3,000!

Quiz tables are also still available – Come along and have a fun quiz night while supporting a great cause.

To play my part – “I will walk 500 miles”, finishing in June this year. That’s the equivalent of one million steps – or the entire length of Nepal! If you can contribute, here's my JustGiving page. you can also Scan gthe QR code to donate.
