Thwaites Brow Brownies aid for Africa
11:09am Wednesday 24th June 2009 in Thwaites Brow
Members of a Keighley Brownie pack have taken up a challenge to help girls in four countries in Africa.
The youngsters in the 1st Thwaites Brow group have participated in a project called Changing the World, which is being promoted by Girlguiding UK and Camfed International.
Over a six-week period the Brownies learned about life in Africa, the problems faced by girls there and how education can change their future.
The Brownies raised money to buy school uniforms, and carried out tasks for family and friends for a small fee.
