I'm going to South Africa

As the title says really, I'm going to South Africa!

Yesterday I got my letter from Project Trust to say that I have been successful and will be going to South Africa, Malawi or Swaziland, with the most likely being South Africa and to fund raise for that country. I am very, very excited to have been chosen and to be given a chance to go to South Africa for a whole year!


Project Trust is a charity which sends young people abroad the various volunteer projects around the world during their gap year, their website says the following 
Project Trust is the UK's original Gap Year provider. Established in 1967, we have over 40 years experience and have sent over 6000 volunteers to over 60 countries.
Project Trust is registered as a Charity in Scotland (SCO25668). We specialise in sending 17-19 year old school leavers overseas for long term volunteering placements of 8 or 12 months. We currently have volunteering opportunities in 23 countries in Africa, Asia and the Americas.
A big part of the gap year abroad with Project Trust is the fund raising, fund raising £5,100! 


This blog is to help share with everyone how my fundraising is going, and just keep track of how this next year goes before I go to spend a year in the amazing South Africa!
