the village of hope seeks to help children infected or affected by hiv, aids and tb in two different ways: we have a 9 bed children's unit to support those infected by hiv and aids and we also run a community-based sports and lifeskills outreach in the informal settlements and squatter camps each afternoon.

this blog has been set up to allow the key members of the team at the village of hope to share their thoughts, photos and experiences as we work in the community of grabouw in south africa

planning to open

this week has flown by again and what with the arrival of pauline rowbotham and tim's mum and dad the village has grown once again.

the major news is that we have now offered jobs to the 8 careworkers (mums) who will be working up on the village of hope as they look after the children in the unit, these ladies will join us for an orientation week next week and then we will be taking in our first children on monday 6th april....this date is exactly 6 months since tim, maz and arron moved out to south africa and we are so looking forward to making a wonderful home for these children infected by HIV AIDS.
