The staff team for the five week expedition has now arrived. They have all completed their project planning visits and are now eagerly awaiting the arrival of the participants.
Rob and Eileen are going to be managing the environmental project at Harnas Wildlife Foundation. In spite of being frightened of Elvis, the Fieldbase cat, Rob can’t wait to start working at Harnas with the big cats as he has wanted to be a game park ranger ever since he was a little boy. Eileen was the Communications Officer last year in Ghana so she’s a true Raleigh professional and is really looking forward to being a Project Manager here in Namibia.
Lorraine and Nikki will be the Project Managers for Onameya playground. Lorraine is a Youth Worker in Manchester and as a true Mancunian is a City fan. She’s been a Raleigh participant and is now thrilled to be back as staff. It’s Nikki’s first time on Raleigh but she is an outdoor, sporty type who has completed the Borneo Challenge recently and is hoping to win the London Marathon next year (well maybe a top three finish..).
Pete and Catherine will be project managing Hangholme playground. Pete has been working on the ten week programme up at Oshana School so he’s already a Raleigh aficionado and can’t wait to get started on the five week programme. Underneath the London IT Girl exterior Catherine is an outdoor girl who is well up for project management, especially the adventure challenge!

Hello Helen and Tom
Its 5.30am and your team are on the night shift with Goldies leadership as Ali is still off with her eye prob.
it has been alright tonight though the next will be bad as you are missing the Dr changeover.
I had a lovely time with Dan when he was back, he has already been back out 5 weeks. it is madness but nevermind Nov will come quick esp as you have already been gone a third of your time. Sounds like you are having fun though. Glad it is what you expected and wanted.
Hope you have see Tom occansionly!
Better go and clean and check before the early shift arrive

Sam and the team
