An amazing aggregation of elephants by a water hole.

Demelza is walking the pilgrims route Camino de Santiago, she sent an image of an old doorway. She is raising money for 2 really worthwhile interconnected charities.

 "A local charity "Bringing Freedom"  supporting a bigger more established and international charity

LOVE146 - against child exploitation and trafficking. Also young men and women. 

Link copied from the page is here below. 

http://www.justgiving.com/bringingfreedomwalk.
JustGiving sends your donation straight to Love146 and automatically reclaims Gift Aid if you are a UK taxpayer, so your donation is worth even more.
Thank you for your support!

All the money raised is going to a safe house in Bournemouth opened by LOVE146 last year for the restoration of trafficked slaves."

And I have booked my tickets to go to
Arts & Health South West Prize 2015
