EWB-UK is once again proud to send a number of enthusiastic volunteers to make a difference where it is most needed.

The EWB-UK/RedR Cambridge Group training course at Clare Farm, which has been running for a number of year, has always been an exciting and inspiring event. The course consists of practical exercises, focussing on both development and disaster relief work.

The course is led by professionals who have experience of working abroad using practically-based and refreshing ways of teaching.

 

 

A re-launch event for the Manchester branch of the EWB-UK Professional Network is planned on the 13th March at 6pm.

This event will provide an opportunity to find out more about the work of EWB-UK and how you can get involved in the Professional Network. It will also be a useful event for prospective members of the student branch to attend

Please come along and join us - contact Laura Ellington if you have any questions about this event.
