A journey into Uganda

Louise McCann describes an inspirational project

In 2016 Northampton Meeting adopted as its charity the community of Butta, in the district of Manafwa, Uganda. An attender at our Meeting, Alex Gyabi, is a long-term resident of the UK who comes from that area and was concerned about the situation there: subsistence farming made precarious by soil erosion and flooding, with not much by way of opportunity for the young people of the area. He wanted to help.
