Coronavirus School Closures

Our thoughts are firmly with our partners - and the children they support - in Uganda and Zimbabwe as spikes in Coronavirus cases in both countries have once again led to school closures. We hope cases can be brought under control and schools reopened quickly.

In Uganda, we are helping the team at SAFE buy new outdoor play equipment at the Nsimbe Transit Home to give the children fun and stimulation during this latest lockdown.

In Zimbabwe, the team at Mwana Trust took delivery of 300 sets of solar lights last week following the successful grant awarded by Scurrah Wainwright Charity earlier this year. As soon as restrictions permit, the programme of installation will commence so children will be able to learn at home by solar light, rather than by firelight or not at all.
