Welcome to KWA |

We met Loli, the director of the San Lazaro Home for children with cerebral palsy, at the newly-opened school situated ten minutes from the Northern airport in March 2009.
The transformation of the derelict building that we visited in 2008 was truly remarkable. Nearly forty persons, adults as well as children, were engaged in a variety 
of activities in a truly happy environment. What a difference Loli and her trained staff are bringing to these disadvantaged persons.
Eve presented loli with a cheque for 1,500 euros, being the "take" for the Sunday walks in Tenerife during the 2008/9 Winter season.
This coming season, we are adding a full fifth day's walking, in order to boost the "bolso".
We met up in June, as planned, for the weekend of charity walks. Fine weather kept us smiling.
A smaller turn-out than in previous years, but perhaps the June date is not so convenient.A rather nice meal was eaten at The Stables in Eyam (the horses having bolted
at the sight of us).
In all £425 was collected and sent to the Kisakye Trust for helping Ugandian children who had contracted HIV/Aids. Many thanks for your generous donations.
Next year...now where should we meet? Peak District or somewhere different? And should it be August? Will post details as soon as I've argued
(sorry, discussed)this with the "Gold 'n' Old" of 50 years.
Eve and Stan.
