On 9 May 2005 the Project Convoy
team met up at Krakow airport having flown in seperate groups from
Gatwick and Luton. A four hour coach transfer took the team by road
to the small town of Sokolow Malopolski, just 25km north of Rzeszow
in eastern Poland.
Over the next week, we split up into various smaller teams
each tasked to provide; an adventure playground, an English language
lab, distribute medical supplies for local medical centres,
orphanage, and a drug rehabilitation project.
All projects were completed successfully, leaving us
three days to relax in Krakow. At 6 Zlotys to the pound, food and
drink was cheap, the people warm and friendly. We flew back on 19
May vowing one day to return to our new friends in Poland.
You can view some photos from our trip to Poland
(optimised for those using a dialup modem) by clicking HERE.
These pictures are a small sample of those we intend
to post on this website, just as soon they become available from
team members.
