Sunday 21st July Today was our last day filled with so many emotional goodbyes, tears and memories. After a fantastic, even though embarrassing, night of dancing and drumming on the beach at Stumble Inn, we parted with our buddies for the last time in Ghana. Many tears were shed but these are friendships that will...Read More
Saturday 20th July Today we got a day of relaxation with the hand over ceremony being moved to yesterday which we were all very pleased with. We spent the day reading, playing cards and heading down to Coconut Grove for a drink and a snack. It was a pretty rainy day so we didn’t really...Read More
Friday 19th July Having woken up to the wonderful aroma of Nana’s pancakes, we set off for Essaman United Junior Highschool. Refreshed and ready to go, we embarked on completing the final project, which involved painting second coats and levelling the surrounding ground. By lunch we had already finished, so we briefly headed to Stumble...Read More
Thursday 18th July Today gave a great sense of achievement and satisfaction as a result of our hard work on the playground project at Essaman. After an unprecedented alarm at 5:30 from our new neighbours, we enjoyed a breakfast of Nanna’s pancakes – we almost ran out of ‘Top Choc’! We then set off swiftly...Read More
Wednesday 17th July Today we had a day trip to the stilt village. After a very long journey we arrived at a picturesque beach where the sun was shining, the sea was sparkling and there were lots of goats running around (our new favourite animal). We all enjoyed the boat journey to the village through...Read More

Monday 15th July The main focus of today was beginning the second project: the painting of a local school, another outreach project alongside Essaman United.

Sunday 14th July Today was our relaxation day which was amazing due to the fact that we had a lie in – we woke up at 9am instead of 6am! For breakfast we had French toast and omelettes which were delicious. Then after breakfast we took part in a bead making workshop which was so...Read More
Saturday 13th July This morning we all woke up to the collapsing of Frankie and Loreta’s bed and Loreta emerging from the bed somehow unscathed saying ‘the bed fell on me’ in the most monotone way, thankfully whilst we were out the bed was replaced with a more sturdy one and everyone became slightly jealous...Read More
Friday 12th July This morning we were treated to yummy French toast by Nana which I can happily say we were all very excited about. Although we didn’t have any more chocolate spread which tends to be a highlight of breakfast time, replacements were made and we all still had plenty. We set off back...Read More
