There are only 17 days left until Christmas. Most of us have our trees up by now. Make sure you get your bauble before the rush on the Christmas post means you can't enjoy it on your tree for very long! Make change possible (like these before and after photos)

We’ve talked about “Rooted” on and off since January. Rooted for nature lovers, tree enthusiasts and you who want to see landscapes change and closely follow a project that is making waves - or putting down strong roots - in Southern Malawi.

We’d like to introduce you to Moffat. Moffat graduated from Nankhumba Secondary last year, and has been waiting for a place at university since. AMAZINGLY he continues to be sponsored into his university placement, and we cannot wait to see where this opportunity takes him.

We are delighted to have hosted groups and guests from all corners of the globe over the years. In 2019, we had a group from @weareworldchallenge stay with us and it was an absolute joy to witness their drive, enthusiasm and energy. Thought we'd share this ray of sunshine.

Last month we released an appeal asking if you would commit to raising £1000. 970 cups of DAILY phala-porridge remained without funds for 2023. And a huge 746 pupils have phala everyday secured for the next year! If you would like to become one of the MIGHTY 13, DM.

Our friends 'rippleafrica' pioneered a simple solution to Malawi's deforestation crisis. By building clay efficient stoves families can cut their wood consumption by two thirds all whilst saving money and time! That's a triple win. What do you think?

Last week Horton Form 1 paid the Tree Project a visit. They cover ecology, agriculture and reforestation education. When you come to Malawi, Augustine and the Tree Project team take you through a very similar experience. What do you think, would you enjoy it?
