We have found many of our past volunteers regularly keep in touch with people within our Gambian communities and they support each other with various aspects of their education or studies.
One of the Lisa Kent Trust trustees meets you at Banjul International Airport and a UK Trustees will be present throughout your stay ensuring your well being & helping you develop your skills & understanding of this fascinating environment.
