A group of Shropshire students, who raised nearly £10,000 to help support a range of initiatives for a rural town in Kenya, has completed a two-and-a-half-week Kenyan expedition.
24 students from Concord College visited Kenya on a two-and-a-half week expedition
The funds, totalling £9,600, raised by the students from a combination of fundraising events and their own donations, will help to support initiatives for The Moving Mountains Trust charity which has been operating in the rural county town of Embu for about 20 years. An inspiring programme of activities for the students included visiting a centre for street children where they served lunch, providing food drops to the poorest families in the slums, renovating classrooms in a special school and helping to run health clinics for the community.
