Twelve
Jersey volunteers have spent a month in West Africa for the Jersey Overseas
Aid Gambia Project 2004.
After four
months preparation, their aim was to build a skills centre in the village
of Sohm, so that job skills can be taught to unemployed young people there.
This is a
record of their achievements and experiences - take a look at the terrific
photo galleries, and read the full reports of what was an unforgettable
month.
You may even
be inspired to go on a future trip! If so, you can get more details from
Dave Ellis on 861848, though you must be a Jersey resident to be eligible
for an Overseas Aid project. You can also e-mail Dave at dave@lecatelet.co.uk
