Being the news!

April 30, 2014 by idahorner

When I never I receive an early morning call, and by early I mean before 9am  here in the UK , I fear the worst  and the first thought that crosses my mind is whether I am about to learn that a member of my family back in Uganda is ill or worse.

So when the phone  went off at 7.30am on Monday morning my heart sunk and when I saw who was calling I steadied myself and found somewhere to sit. My cousin Bina doesn’t call often and when she does it is not so early in the morning.

The purpose of her call? She had picked up the morning paper in Uganda and discovered there was a big spread about me and my work  in The Daily Monitor a local paper in Uganda

The story We all need someone to give us a break .. chronicles my journey as the founder and Chair person of a UK community registered charity LET THEM HELP THEMSELVES OUT OF POVERTY  by Ugandan journalist and author Jackee Batanda  and one of my Twitter connections
