There are some questions in life you think you’ll never get asked, and even when they are asked, you can’t quite imagine they actually have been. In this case it was: “So, how do you fancy going to Zambia?”
Two weeks ago the thought of going to Zambia hadn’t even entered my mind, to be honest, the country had barely entered my mind during my 29 years as far as knowing it existed.
That was until an email popped into my inbox.
The email was an invite to apply for the WaterAid supporters visit to Zambia which is to take place in February 2012.
Since I began working for my local water company I have been involved in promoting the good work staff and the Company have been doing to raise money for this charity both internally and externally. I have got stuck into fundraising too, running The Bath Half Marathon on the 6th March 2011 to raise much needed funds.
As a result of this work, I was invited to apply, and with a potentially life changing week on the horizon, I could hardly turn it down. So with blessings from my boss and family I put in my hopeful application.
A few days later came that question: “So, how do you fancy going to Zambia?”
