This summer I am taking part in a charity project in conjunction with KickStart Ghana.
The project involves a team of 10 volunteers delivering a six-week programme of education and sports to underprivileged children in the Volta region of Ghana.
This project is important in enabling children in Ghana to develop hopes for a future that seemed previously unimaginable. Our presence there will help give them a wider knowledge of their options in life.
The project needs to be funded through charitable donations. As a team we must raise £14,000.

You can find more information about them here: http://kickstartghana.org/ (The project is with Exeter University but I live locally.) Based on information supplied by Rebecca Compton.
