Corporate donations to the clinic

Chris Potter, one of the Yellowmen, recently held a free seminar with his company, Select Appointments, and asked clients for a donation to the Buy A Brick campaign.

Select Appointments held the seminar at the Brighton Racecourse on the morning of Thursday 21st September. The successful seminar was designed for clients to bring to light any concerns that they had about the legislation in general, or their business in particular.

This seminar was a complimentary service to Select Appointments clients, and all clients were asked to donate to Select's chosen charitable project, the Buy a Brick campaign in Kenya. The Buy a Brick campaign is raising funds to build a clinic in Kenya, giving practical support to local tribespeople. From this seminar over £250 was raised, a relatively small amount in the UK that will go a long way over there.

October Visit

Following our visit in February 2006, the Medical Centre has come on apace. The walls are now all completed and the roof nearly ready. The work has been carried out by the villagers with continued donations from Rotary Club of Senlac.

A small group of Yellowmen are visiting the project in October to review the project and find out what is needed next. Money raised from the Battle Classic Car Show, a Golf Day and various other activities will be taken to fund the next stages.

Check back for updates on the project when the Yellowmen return.
