Global Challenge are helping to fund operations that give children back their mobility when suffering from the muscle disorder called Gluteal Fibrosis.
Our Special needs Coordinator, Billy Outeke has sent us a SWOT ANALYSIS FOR GC (Global Challenge) – SPECIAL NEEDS PROJECT for the period January 2022 to December 2023.
We held a fantastic information evening in November. The event kicked off with the Ugandan treats of chicken on a stick and chapatis, washed down with ginger beer.
Our brilliant fundraisers and supporters at Cherry Tree Education in Margate completed an auction of promises at the end of their school year in July 2023.
Billy, our Special Needs Coordinator riding his trusty motorbike, along with our Ugandan volunteers, are able to scour the Soroti district to identify children in need of life-changing surgery.
Katy, Tim, Joanna and Enock enjoyed sunning themselves in the iconic circle architecture of their Soroti hotel while waiting for our Global Challenge Special Needs Coordinator, Billy.
Ever wondered how our volunteers get around to work with our partners in Soroti and surrounding areas? One way is good, old, pedal power!
Do you remember this story?
“The children and young people at Cherry Tree Special School in Margate had raised money at their school fair and were keen to be directly involved in Global Challenge’s special needs project.
Barbra, a bright and articulate young lady who is wheelchair bound, was delighted to receive a new chair. Barbra, who has recently been baptised in a swimming pool at a hotel local to her, was the first ever special needs child to receive a wheelchair from Global Challenge’s Special Needs project!
Our Special Needs Coordinator, Billy, has informed us that Martha and Faith have received reconditioned wheelchairs funded by Global Challenge. He has another one in storage to be given to another child.
