Development Direct
Our Child-to-Child activities began in April 2002. They take place in schools in Northumberland and Durham local education authority areas. We work with the Healthy Schools Initiative in Northumberland and Durham, Northumberland LA Consultant for Cultural Diversity, Northumbria Healthcare Trust and with the Moshi – Tanzania health link. Personnel from Development Direct help to find schools in Africa that schools in the North East of England can link up with. The Child-to-Child activities form part of the initial linking process as they provide suitable topics for study by pupils in both countries.
Our children are based in urban and rural communities in the UK, as well as in Gambia, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. The children's ages range from 4 – 11 years. The children include disadvantaged and marginalised children, and children with special needs, e.g. disabled children, street children, working children and children in institutions. The adult workers are primary school teachers. Read more
