My Travel Story

On the 13th August 2018 I will be travelling to Bali, Indonesia for a four week mental health placement with the voluntary organisation SLV. Go Global.
This will involve me working alongside other volunteers with the aim of improving the lives of individuals with mental health problems who do not currently receive the level of health care they require. This will involve running sessions in Indonesian psychiatric facilities and at centres for those with special needs.
In addition, I will also be teaching English to children and young adults in the local community.
During my placement I will be staying in a traditional Balinese homestay compound with other volunteers from this project.
Any donation is greatly appreciated, thank you for your support!
