Raleigh India Expedition 12J: News flash

News flash

News just in from Echo 5: an elephant was spotted this morning during the daily water run.

On this mornings water run the bright and breezy and slightly sleepy venturers were lucky to spot an elephant whilst they were collecting the day's supply of water.

Something tells me the water run might be a more popular chore from now on...

This is count one for the elephant spotting at Echo 5 may there be many more!

Raleigh India

Raleigh is a youth and education charity with 26 years experience in providing adventurous and challenging expeditions for people from all backgrounds, nationalities and ages, especially young people.

Raleigh India launched in February 2008. In just two years its expeditions and volunteer projects have grown beyond all expectation. So has our understanding of the importance of our presence here.

India witnesses a huge disparity between the urbanised wealthy and the rural poor. Although government initiatives are targeting this and attempting to redress the balance; changing an embedded culture and reversing the tide in a sub-continent as huge as India is not a fast process.

Through concentrated and sustained efforts our project groups have begun to make a tangible difference in the areas Raleigh India has focused. By partnering with both local grass roots NGOs, government agencies such as the Ministry for Environment and Forests and international NGOs like the World Wide Fund for Nature, Raleigh has been able to access and address some core issues here in India.

For more information, please visit Raleigh's website: http://www.raleighinternational.org/

Watch our videos at the Raleigh YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/user/RaleighInternational

And now there's a brand new adventure in partnership with the UK Government! Check out the Raleigh India ICS blog for all the action from our teams of volunteers at http://raleighindiaics.blogspot.in/

Namaskaara!
