What I just can’t believe is that the trip is actually over! It seems to have passed so fast but I’m really looking forward to raising more awareness at FHS, fundraising and eventually (fingers crossed) inviting some of the BAGSS girls over here.

I remember the feeling of complete peace at Bandawe most clearly. I settled down after a couple of days of constantly saying, ‘Look at that! Isn’t that just awesome?’ I think we all felt totally at home there and that was all down to the fabulous people and the warm welcome they gave us.

Our experiences there make me want to just go out and change the world now and I am definitely going back to see them again – just try to stop me! All the letters and cards we received from the girls were lovely and I will cherish them, but their singing, laughing and dancing is what I will always keep close to my heart. (Some extra cheese thrown in there especially for Thomas.)

I’m quite nervous about submitting this comment now, because I know all of you will be checking it for horrific grammatical errors, and I’ve already gone over it in a nervous sweat!

Thanks to Mrs D and the team for making this amazing trip possible!
