Michael, Emma, Kenneth, Simon, Christine, Julius and Innocent live in Abatai, Uganda. Sadly they have been abandoned by their parents, and now Michael who is 12 is responsible for all of his siblings. This is one of our 15 new child headed families to join our programme in 2021! 
After a year of interrupted education its all about catching up on lost time, including cleaning! Here are a group of our students getting water to clean their dorms! Its great to have them back! #lockdowneasing #backtoschool #gettingstuckin

Your support through our lent appeal is building a medical centre which will provide 24 hour care for all of our orphaned children, and will be equipped with isolation rooms for covid infected patients. http://ow.ly/MTq150E9yVd #covid #uganda #thankyou 
Thank You! You have been incredibly generous through our lent appeal which has far raised £8,500! 100% of these donations will be used in #Uganda ensuring we are ready to fight the covid pandemic. You can still support us http://ow.ly/m03n50E9yDj 
The Ministry of Health has today received 864,000 doses of the #AstraZeneca #COVID-19 #vaccine, shipped via the COVAX facility—the world’s facility for universal access to COVID-19 vaccines. The arrival marks a historic step towards the goal to ensure equitable distribution of COVID-19 vaccines globally, in an unprecedented effort to provide at least 2 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccine by the end of 2021. #Uganda targets to vaccinate 49.6 per cent of the population, which is about 21,936,011, in a phased manner. Each phase is planned to cover 20 per cent of the population – approximately 4.38 million people.

Our social workers visited this family and bought some sweet potato which they absolutely loved! Child Headed Families are led by their eldest sibling, and in this case it’s 13 year old Michael who is responsible for his 6 siblings. #orphan #sweetpotato #socialworker 
A huge thank you to Henry (@therealjimwicks and @rebeccaljwicks ) for nominating Edith's Hope to be the charity his year group are raising money for by running a marathon as part of their topic 'The Greeks'. #champion #superstar #raisingmoney #running #marathon 
Out of all of the challenges going on for our Lent Appeal, I think this must be one of the most difficult! Pam is eating the same types of food that the average orphaned family would eat every day in Lent. Well done Pam! You can support here http://ow.ly/Yb3C50DXsWR
