People who make New Ways
New Ways is made up of people from a wide variety of backgrounds and cultures. We are based in London but also have members in continental Europe and Africa. What we share in common is a commitment to use our talents, time and energy to help communities suffering deprivation, and bring new opportunity to the people we work with.
Our directors are based in UK, France and Kenya. Most of our fundraising is organised from London and most of the volunteers involved in fundraising are based here.
Our volunteers come from all walks of life but have a common goal of alleviating the suffering of the world’s poorest communities. Amongst our volunteers we have teachers, housewives, finance specialists, retirees and students. We try to make our fundraising events fun, rewarding and sociable. Through them we raise money but also want to raise awareness of the issues faced by the communities we work with.
We are not involved in accepting volunteers for overseas placements in Africa but from time to time friends do go for 3 months to help in the field. Our volunteers are predominantly involved in raising funds and awareness where they are. If you would like to be involved in one of our fundraising events or would consider organising some fundraising yourself, we’d love to hear from you. Please email info@newways.org.uk
