Project Khon Kaen (Thailand) 31 July - 12 Aug 2006
The annual trip, PKK (the term of endearment we use to call this project) is organised by our members. The 2 leaders this year are Samantha Low and Chok Singwei who did a fantastic job of getting individuals from universities far and wide from the UK to abandon their luxuries back home, and bung them all to Thailand to do some good volunteering and social work. (Of course they had planned & taken many measures to ensure that they had a roof over their heads and food to eat as well!)
On their agenda were educational talks and skits (all in Thai, by the way!) on dengue fever, breast cancer and muscle strains etc. – all geared at the risks facing the village. Further activities include teaching English to children & organising some fun-filled activities for them whilst they are there.
