Thankfulness has been a real theme of the trip with many children being sent into school with fruit or maize as a gift of appreciation for how Helping Hands got families through the famine. It was clearly a necessary intervention and one that has had a major impact on many families. Debbie and Emma lived off the eggs and avocados whilst the maize and sweet potatoes were shared out with the rest of the team and their neighbours!
