​Thanks, so much for all your wonderful support. I’m very pleased that I have completed my 60 miles walk challenge with a bonus of 5 miles (my unhappy feet just told me!).
A big thank you to Refugee Tales who provide groups like Green Kordofan a platform to share their messages from.

Thanks to all my fellow walkers without whose support this would not have been possible. Especially when I was delirious and couldn’t deal with the heat and steep hills!!!

 The saying of the day is “coccolithophore”  because,I feel like a tiny mini coccolithophore and I would like you to join me to make a whole Cliff.

Video above shows children learning new skills,  we welcome all to contribute in making their dreams come true, peace, hope and unity.

The Yida Refugee camp, in which Green Kordofan's project team of 
dedicated  workers is based, has suffered a  natural disaster - 
devastating floods - rivers of water and debris have swept through the 
constructions and fencing, which our team and voluntary youngsters, who 
are the heart of our project, have built up over time. 

We are immediately trying to organise the shipment of Tents to Yida and 
are launching an appeal to help our team with reconstruction and support 
for those amongst our members and youngsters in most need.

Thus if you are a friend to the project or just feel inspired to help us 
pull together with the Yida team - please look on our 
website(https://www.greenkordofan.com/) under the GET INVOLVED tab, 
Donate now.
All help no matter how small, will be greatly appreciated by all out there.
