Uganda – School improvements You’ll be based on one of the poorest areas of Uganda, which is badly affected by seasonal rainfall. The infrastructure at the local school is in a severe state of disrepair and children are often taught outside due to a lack of facilities. You’ll help to construct or refurbish permanent classrooms so that local children have access to a safe and suitable place to learn.

Uganda – Wildlife conservation Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary provides one of the only safe havens for Uganda’s few remaining white rhinos and breeds them for eventual release back into the wild. You’ll work alongside this dedicated team of rangers and conservationists, to support the daily running of this critical conservation centre, undertaking low-level repair and maintenance and helping to monitor the rhinos.
