As part of our time in India we'll be spending a few weeks with Friends of Kolkata doing some work through CCD, which is a local Kolkata based organisation that supports kids that have been affected by child labour. They run some schools, a boys home for boys that can't be supported at home, and they also do a lot of work advocating for the rights of children in India. What we do when we 're there will probably unfold more once we're in Kolkata, but we're planning to help in one of the CCD schools doing some literacy and numeracy stuff. We also hope to work on a mosaic project with some of the boys, to brighten up the space around the school. We'll be going with the flow, and slotting in wherever is helpful. Overall, we're looking forward to the opportunity to hang out with some locals in the place they live, and hopefully get a glimpse of life off the tourist route.
