More details
African poverty alleviation is hard - especially with all sorts of agencies taking money out. This charity is different - all the money goes directly to point of need, and they are delivering education which will give sustainable benefit.

More information is available on the website, which seems to be still under construction at www.faji.org.uk

  • Well done to Gareth & Jane on completing the coast to coast bike ride. A fantastic effort for a wonderful cause! I genuinely feel sorry for Jane that she had to cycle an extra 10 miles because bikes aren't allowed on the Metro.
