Buriton's unique link with Dominase in rural Ghana continues to bring real benefits for the West African community.
On his latest visit, at the end of October, Doug Jones was able to look at all the household toilets being built with money raised in Buriton.
All continues to go very well and next steps for an expanding programme were agreed.
As well as extra toilets in the out-station villages of Nkrofo and Adaboe, it will be possible to provide funding for construction in other parts of the Dominase community: in Besease, Anwiawia and Treposo.
Money raised by Buriton's ?Village-to-Village? Charity pays for materials needed to build each toilet house - whilst local villagers do much of the hard work and provide other components themselves.
Local masons, trained as an earlier part of our project, will work with residents to provide these extra toilets - with more to come in the future ?.
And, thanks to the generosity of children at Ditcham Park School, it has been possible to provide a computer for children at one of the village schools - their first computer ever.
Until now, IT lessons had been limited to children gazing at a text book with a diagram of a keyboard. The money from Ditcham Park School has helped to bring these lessons to life - and offers young children much better opportunities for the future.
