Toilet Twinned by our SPACE FOR YOUth Club
Last year we raised £60 by holding a fun "Toilet Party" during youth club as well as by parents making donations at the end of term family barbecue. There was much giggling and squeals of "that's really gross!" as the youngsters became involved in the toilet-themed activities, such as Pinning the Flush on the Toilet, Pees in the Potty (using dried peas, straws and well-disinfected potties!),
Toilet Paper Challenge (wrapping each other in toilet paper) and various themed quizzes including Who Has BEEN in my Garden? After showing a short video explaining the work of the charity and interviewing people who had been provided with a toilet, thus improving their health and well-being, the youngsters were very keen to be able to help.

The certificate we recently received is to be hung in the Methodist church and shows "our" actual latrine in Democratic Republic of Congo.
