A growing Lanarkshire charity is preparing for its “biggest project ever” – as a group of volunteers prepare to to travel to Namibia to take on six different community projects ranging from helping repair a school to introducing walking football.
The group from Diamonds in the Community will be heading to the African nation later this month, where they will spend two weeks travelling across the 2000-kilometre Namib desert with their hosts from the Topnaar tribe and communities to support a range of local priorities.
With all the participants funding their own travel, they are currently busy fundraising to help towards the work being done during the trip, with an online donations page having so far collected £1800 of their £5000 target.
