For a while now the Upper Colne Parishes have been supporting the work of the Activation Trust. The Trust assists children of secondary school age in West Kenya in furthering their education. The benefice is funding a student whose name is Jonathan Oloo Wambi (aged 13) and other students are sponsored by individuals. Nearly all the students are orphans. Primary education in Kenya is quite good but secondary education is rare, especially for girls. By helping Jonathan, who wants to be a doctor, we can make a difference not only to his life but to many where he will live and work.
