Steve Docherty a self employed builder from Leeds has very kindly offered to drive down to Ghana from the UK in Jan 2010 and donate his Land Rover to Village by Village again ……! Steve did the same trip last year and donated his green landy but this year he is not only donating the vehicle but a much needed trailer too. Without the trailer we can only transport small amounts of cement so the trailer means we can really get to work in those off the beaten track, hard to reach villages.
People donate to charity for various different reasons: a willingness to make a difference, the kudos of being associated with a charity or just a strong belief in right and wrong. Steve is one of our most generous benefactors, he is not a rich man and each of these trips costs him dearly but he gives without any expectation of reward or acknowledgement. We would just like to publicly thank him and those others who give so generously. Below are the team who are all travelling down across the Sahara in Jan 2010 (Steve is far left) and donating their vehicles across Africa.
Steve is looking for a co-driver to share the experience of a lifetime and running costs…. You could go for a week or a month! Interested email me neil@villagebyvillage.org.uk
