NAMIBIA PROJECT
2-10 October 2009
Namibia is one of the few places on earth where the natural environment rules supreme. It is a country where one is able to experience the sense of primeval freedom that is impossible elsewhere.
It is a beautiful setting, with ample opportunities to explore, climb, abseil, or discover the ancient Bushman paintings whilst enjoying the clear desert air and star-bathed night skies.
Working with the local people who live in this harshest of environments, we will help to refurbish a community project, and to regenerate the local community.
