Name A Day – news so far…

So I’ve been home from Rwanda for a fortnight.  In all honesty I came back very angry with the world and more than a little shell shocked.  I suppose that’s understandable whilst I sort it all out in my head.

I went to try and help make a difference and I came back wondering whether I’d really achieved that by taking part.

The main push was to call on world leaders to put an end to childhood malnutrition –  asking David Cameron to #nameaday to tackle hunger and hold a World Food Summit for world leaders to address the problem.  To influence that we need people to sign the online petition -

Save the Children – Name A Day

If you haven’t done it already please visit the link and pledge a date.  On your date you don’t need to do anything major it can be as simple as talking to a friend and asking them to  sign up too.  It won’t cost you any money, just simply a little bit of your time and it could make all the difference.

So far 4810 days have been named in support of the campaign which adds up to an astonishing 13 years!

Save the Children have also heard that the noise made with the launch of the campaign has really made the PM’s office sit up and take notice. Nothing official yet but it’s a good start!

So from me (and this cheeky chappy!) it’s a huge thank you to you for supporting me and Save the Children with the campaign.  If my trip has helped one child in the world somewhere then it’s been worth it.
