It was an amazing opportunity to travel and experience such a beautiful country with the knowledge we were making such a difference to the education of many children. Such an amazing project, will definitely be returning! — Charlotte Clark, 2011 Volunteer, 2012 Team Leader

The trip was very well organised and gave us the chance to experience everything Ghana had to offer. Couldn't pick a particula thing I enjoyed most and I throughly enjoyed every moment of the trip. — Matt Talbot, 2011 Volunteer

Once at the libraries the work was very efficient and organised, this was helped by having confident and appropriate team leaders. I LOVED the orphanage and the vegetable patch!! I love chicken and rice so the food was good! The house was better than I was expecting too! — Kat Thompson, 2011 Volunteer

The rewarding feeling you get seeing the children happy when you've done a good job, or simply after playing with them (e.g football) for an hour or so is amazing. The tourist type trips we did of a weekend were unforgettable, for example, a canopy walk through a rainforest and sleeping in a tree house, these are some of the best things I've done in my entire life, let alone the trip. — Brad Wilkie, 2011 Volunteer

I really enjoyed working on the projects. In particular I enjoyed the interaction with the children and locals of the community. I thought the library builds were well organised and we were extremely productive. I especially enjoyed working at the orphanages with the babies. I thought assisting in creating a vegetable patch was a great idea that would be extremely beneficial! I also liked the fact that we were able to see most if not all of the main tourist attractions that Ghana had to offer on our visit. — Sophie Taylor, 2011 Volunteer

What did you like most in your experience? I enjoyed embracing the culture and meeting new people, And the feeling of actually being of some use. — Ellie Doidge, 2011 Volunteer

Great trip and definitely worth everything. So good I'm going again!! — Alieda Moore, 2011 Volunteer

The children. Always smiling and so friendly no matter what their situation - really taught me some lifelong lessons. I also loved the fact that I knew no one from the group before the trip but we got on so well. Absolutely enjoyed Jerry (the cook)'s cooking!! — Alieda Moore, 2011 Volunteer
