Another exciting week for Project Riandu. Last Saturday was the first opportunity that most of the volunteers going out in August for the build got to meet and get to know each other. The day started off early with some games and team building activities that got us all involved and in thinking mode for the day ahead. We then had several useful talks from some of the core team which gave more insight and information into the practicalities of the trip. There was a lot to learn from each other, one of our volunteers who works in construction was even able to give a highly interactive lesson on how to use power tools. All in all it was a fun and informative day for the whole team. One of the more impressive features of the day was our head of fundraising volunteer Amy Glover who was having a silence weekend to raise money for the project and had to deliver a 'talk' without using words.
Fundraising activities are still carrying on, today Ali Macnaughton who is head of volunteering experience, ran a marathon in 3 hours 47 minutes making her the 3rd girl to complete the marathon, which is an incredible effort. We've still got a long way to go, please keep donating and spreading the word, we will keep updating you on Facebook and Twitter about events coming up so if theres one around you please come by and support us.
