Lisa Kent Trust – Experience Life in The Gambia – The Gambia

Join us in The Gambia and experience life in a third world country. Make a difference to a young person's life in our school.

Days are spent helping and assisting the class teachers. Children are aged from 4 years to 18 years of age. Use your skills and knowledge to help these youngsters broaden their horizons. Work in small groups or a class.

Sport, drama, dance and craft are always very popular. Evenings and weekends are spent helping with projects, e.g. painting, sports coaching/playing, making resources etc.

We aim to fulfil your goals and ambitions. Visits are also arranged to a local market, to the coast, forest to see the wildlife, museums etc. Evenings are also very busy mixing with the local community and sharing stores, lifestyles, drinking attire, games etc.

Our trips can be challenging but also quite emotionally as The Gambian people are so welcoming. You will have an amazing time and most probably experience something very different.

Please note we DO NOT run trips in the summer holidays due to school terms in The Gambia. Please email for further details.

Accommodation included in cost.
