> “Although we are a small organisation we consistently punch above our weight both
> in our programme work and within our fundraising. We are the official charity 
> of a global sporting league – the motorcycle grand prix (MotoGP™) and we’ve recently
> launched a new programme in Liberia in partnership with the Ministry of Health,
> helping to re-build the health system after Ebola.”
