We are pleased to announce that the Twapia Secondary School has now been completed.
We undertake between 4-6 projects every year, helping to provide a better future for some of the poorest people in sub-Saharan Africa. Currently focusing our work in Zambia, we build latrines, houses, schools and health facilities.
Building work in Zambia is very different to building work in the UK. The rainy season takes place from November to April every year – meaning all building work on site needs to take place in just 5 months. So it is even more important to get things right from the very start.
Since 2006 we have successfully completed 14 building projects benefitting over 8,000 people in Zambia. On each of our building projects we train between 10-15 local men and women in basic building skills. This means the impact of our buildings continues long after the last brick is put in place!
We partner with organisations and local community groups. We do this to ensure we get things right and so all buildings are sustainable long after building work has finished.
We work closely with the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health in Zambia to schools and clinics so that they continue to receive support and go from strength to strength.
