Conflict Resolution Volunteering in Namibia

We are finally back after being bumped off our flight on the way home and having to stay another day in Windhoek. What an amazing trip! This project was phenomenal and everyone in our group got something differently positive about it. The team were super inclusive and accepting of Finn's additional needs and actually celebrated him and what he could do which was really special. We had some very close elephant encounters and although we experienced the death of a calf, this meant that we got to have hand-on experience of working with the vet and facing the reality of the challenges. Namibia felt super safe and very easy to get around although the distances are vast and the terrain often bumpy. We'd definitely recommend this trip to any other family but be prepared not to wash for many days at a time!

I would rate this 5 out of 5. There were frequent reminders and emails which ensured I was doing everything on time. It was very easy to follow guidance Kate gave me and my trip wouldn’t have been possible without her! Overall it was an amazing experience and a highlight was building the wall for the local village.
