‘Five’ go to Uganda!

I’m going with a wonderful small group of friends to Uganda at the end of January 2025. It will be great to visit Kisoro and Rukungiri, to take some photographs and videos of the school, the children, the people and the beautiful country…all of which will help to raise the profile of Emily’s vision ‘to save vulnerable children from abuse and poverty and give them hope of a better future through education’. Martin, the founder of Our Father’s House Ministries and great friend of Emily is making that happen on a daily basis with his wonderful team.. So, your continued support, in whichever way you help, is humbling to us but hugely important to those children – thank you!
