The 21st of September is the International Day of Peace but as the country was in mourning for Queen Elizabeth II members of SI Tamworth commemorated the day with a coffee morning in October. Everyone who attended enjoyed the event and especially the cakes.
A total of £150 was raised for our Ugandan Education Bursary which is one of SI Tamworths International projects.
This project has been ongoing since 2003 when it started with providing termite proof cupboards for books to be kept in. It then continued to educating four girls and a boy through to the end of their senior school education and then supporting the building of a school and the running of it.
We also provide sanitary protection for the children so that they can continue to come to school as well as a small boarding facility for girls who were having to walk to and from school in the dark.
