02 Activities

What the charity does

'Our World' creates and presents a variety of Global Workshops and Children's Activities, principally to schools but also in the community, e.g. churches. These culturally-enriching resources have been produced from first-hand experience of other countries, and have been designed to invite children to explore the realities of daily life for many people who are living in poverty-stricken nations.
