UgandAid in the UK

UgandAid is administered by a small group of volunteers from Altrincham Baptist Church in Cheshire.

School Assemblies

We are keen to introduce the idea of UgandAid sponsorship to schools.  We feel that supporting one young person is a very tangible way in which children can understand the lifestyle and needs of people in another culture.

Members of the UgandAid team visit primary schools within a reasonable distance of Greater Manchester to take an assembly, for approximately 30 minutes, looking at various aspects of life in Uganda including homes, family, animals, toys etc.  We would introduce the idea of the school ‘adopting’ a student of their own, and try to explain the reality of the cost in everyday terms (bags of crisps per child per year!)  We would also help to inspire ideas for fundraising, though so many schools already are brimming with creative energy anyway.
There is not a strict pro-forma to assembly, and we are happy to share our ideas and materials as suits each school.

We are also happy to consider taking UgandAid into senior schools, using the most appropriate communication methods for the age group in question.

For any enquiries about assemblies, contact Christine Booth, admin@ugandaid.com
