Whilst recently in Bolivia I was able to donate a huge number of beautiful teddy bears to Alalay – each had been hand-knitted here in the UK and given to me via The LATA Foundation. The bears were given to the youngest children and the rest have been put in the stores to be used as presents for birthdays throughout the year.
I also took out a large donation of basic medical supplies (bandages, plasters, antiseptic wipes and so on) to be used in our on-site medical centre (at the aldea) and to create mini first aid kits for the welcome houses.
