So, what is the group going to be doing?
Loads of stuff and hopefully they’ll let us know all about them when they get back.
But, if you want a rough idea of what the plans are, check out their itinerary.
There are no hard and fast plans, largely because everything will be running to ‘Malawi time’. That means things happen when they happen.
