Thanks to everyone who came along to our AGM on Saturday 1st April, to meet our trustees and talk about our plans for Kipawa in 2017. It was a really good chance for supporters to ask questions about our work and discuss how they could get more involved. The lunch was great too - many thanks to the Hudsons and Welshes for the delicious soup and other provisions!

***IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR REGULAR DONORS TO KIPAWA ***
If you are a Kipawa donor who gives a regular donation through Virgin Money Giving, you should have had an email recently advising that you need to re-register your donation because VMG is updating its systems. This email is genuine and if you do not set up a new regular donation, your donations to Kipawa will stop. Regular donations are vitally important to our ability to plan our work and make ongoing commitments to the people we work with in Kenya. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you. If you need any more information or help with the process, please call Virgin Money Giving on 03456 09 10 46, or email theteam@virginmoneygiving.com You can re-register your donation here. **** CALLING ALL CYCLISTS!!! **** Once again, Kipawa has 3 places available in the fabulous 'RideLondon-Surrey 100' road race on Sunday 30th July 2017. This is a fantastic opportunity for cyclists to follow the route made famous durinig the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The challenge starts in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, then follows a 100-mile route, on closed roads, through the capital and into Surrey’s stunning countryside, finishing in The Mall in central London. Previous riders for Kipawa have always found the 100 miles challenging but exhilarating. As well as training in the lead up to July, cyclists will be asked to raise a minimum sponsorship for Kipawa of £600. We will, of course, provide any help or advice you need to get going with your fundraising efforts. Please get in touch if you would like to take part - and share with all your cycling friends!  Only 4 months til the LondonMarathon - still plenty of time to sponsor Abby who is running for Kipawa.
