Richard in Zambia

Hi everyone,

Having a great time here, the dormitory refurbishment team have completed as far as possible and the girls are absolutely delighted with the results. They only had one working toilet, two showers and three hand basins with two taps working between thirty six girls. Apparently the showers had not worked since 1998 and they were using buckets to wash themselves. The team has replaced the old hand basins with new, replumbed the toilets and showers so they now have two working toilets, two working showers and three handbasins in full use. We also repainted the dormitorys with refreshing colours, new mattresses and mosquito nets and as I said before the girls are delighted. Have video footage which will be compiled into a disk (s) for our library at SLPC.

Best regards and thanks for your support.

Richard.
