Yvonne’s Gambian Holidays !


COFFEE MORNING
Saturday 28TH MAY,
10am – 12.30pm
Perranuthnoe Church Room.

In January 2009 Yvonne Groves, along with a friend, went on a (cheap) holiday to the Gambia.
She fully expected to have an interesting visit, but was not prepared to be bowled over by the love, happiness and generosity of the Gambian people.

She returned again this year and met up with the same families and tried to understand how they managed their lives. Yvonne sponsors the education of a little girl called Phlomen as well as helping 3 other families.

If you would like to hear a personal account and see images of Yvonne’s “Gambian holidays” please come along to the Coffee morning in Perranuthnoe’s Church Room on Saturday 28th May 10am – 12.30pm.

If you would like to support Yvonne further, please bring along any items that she can sell at car boot sales, monies raised from which will support her projects in the Gambia.
