TURN ON THE TAP is a campaign for safe accessible water for people in the developing world. Through a range of solutions from hand dug wells, water filters and boreholes to health and hygiene education, we are providing safe, clean water and helping to break the grip of poverty on local communities.


Our TURN ON THE TAP campaign has already raised hundreds of thousands of pounds to help communities access safe water. But STILL, 1.1 billion people live without access to safe water. It's an outrage!

Now we are asking people to go the extra mile – or four miles to be precise.

On Saturday 10th May 2008 (or a date to suit you) we're asking you to go on a four-mile walk that will help us TURN ON THE TAP for our urgently needed water projects around the world.
To find out more about this exciting campaign please- click here.

Operation Christmas Child
   
 
We have broken all records yet again! An amazing 1.3 million boxes have been sent to Eastern Europe, the Former Soviet Union and Africa.

We have a selection of stories from our distributions available on our website.....

After a selection of amusing songs they sit down and wait with anticipation as the brown cardboard boxes are opened and smaller multicoloured boxes are pulled out and handed to each child. Once every child has one they pull off the rubber bands, snip the sellotape and pull off the lids. They're hit with a rainbow of colour and their faces light up with wonder as they dive into their precious treasure chests with new hats, gloves, cuddly toys, cars, dolls, hair accessories (for girls), tooth brushes and tooth paste. They look at the team and an echo of "Thank you!" is heard around the room. ....- Click here to read more
