During the lockdown period my two sons and I wanted to do something to help our friend, Evanson, in Kenya. We knew that life was tough in the slums in Nairobi but we knew that in lockdown it was going to be even harder. The boys decided to sell homemade lemonade and cookies, and some homemade keyring and bookmarks, at a stall outside our house, hoping that walkers in the hills nearby and local friends would come and support us. 

5 days later Evanson and his sons – on behalf of my sons – were able to deliver a bag of food and soap to 16 of the most in-need children that attend his school – which is currently closed due to lockdown. In the bags were maize flour, cooking oil, rice, sugar and soap. Two weeks later they did the same again.
