Responsible Travel

• The association has provided funds to two local schools; one used the funds to roof its main building; and the other used it for the construction of the main buildings themselves.
• The community camp came together to establish a stretcher club, so that, when needed, funds are available to get someone to hospital.
• The community camp provides English lessons, and environmental and tourism awareness programmes to about 30 children.
• We sensitize members of our community about nature conservation through various initiatives.
• The staff of the camp are locally sourced from surrounding communities to create employment opportunities.
• The camp acquires all of its fruits, vegetables and food from surrounding communities.
