JANUARY 2021 UPDATE 2
/Thanks to the very generous grant from The Eleanor Rathbone Charitable Trust, Extra Mile has started the process of establishing a community library in Goderich, one of the charity’s ambitions when it was set up in 2009. A steering committee has been set up in Sierra Leone and is in the process of putting in place resources and procedures which will allow the library to function well for the benefit of the community. We will keep you up to date with the progress in opening the library in 2021.
Many thanks to Ishmael Bockerie, who together with Lansana Rogers, has purchased the materials and constructed the first of the library’s shelving and started transferring resources from the store to the library.
Meanwhile good use was made of the Christmas break to make good progress with the installation of toilets for female students and staff.
