To promote the benefit of the inhabitants and primarily those of the communities of Dunblane, Scotland and Likhubula, Malawi. To advance the education of the inhabitants and cultivate, create and develop a community relationship between the two communities. To initiate and fund schemes of an infrastructural or sustainable development nature for the community aimed at relieving poverty and deprivation and / or improving the education, health and wellbeing of the inhabitants of Malawi. We have been operational since 2005, and achieved charitable status. We aim to visit the community in Likhubula, Mulanje, Malawi every two years and have had one exchange trip bringing three Malawians to Scotland for three weeks. We have implemented and full funded a gravity fed water supply with 5 taps for Nansato Primary school, funded a sustainable goat rearing project using local management expertise for training and education. We also fully finance bursary students through secondary education and add 5 new bursars annually. A number of these Bursars have recently moved on to tertiary education. Our partnership is varied in it's focus and interests but is just that - a partnership.
