FFION'S
YEAR IN
HONDURAS
My name is Ffion Denman and I am a 17 year old student studying my A-levels in History, English, Art and the Welsh Baccalaureate in Ysgol Glantaf. I have a great passion for arts and photography and would love to pursue photography as an ongoing career. I come from Wales and I'm very proud of my ability to speak fluent Welsh and believe a bilingual upbringing has inspired my love of languages and cultures. After a competitive selection course on the Isle of Coll, Project Trust have selected me to go overseas to Honduras in summer 2017-18, where I will teach English to Honduran children.
My main goal on my year as a volunteer is to help those less fortunate than myself and hopefully make a positive change to their lives. I hope to learn more as a global citizen and travel whilst experiencing new traditions and cultures by immersing myself fully in a Honduran community. I also hope to build my confidence as an individual by developing key teaching skills whilst also learning a new language - Spanish!
WHO AM I
WHAT IS PROJECT TRUST?
Project Trust is an educational registered charity (SCO25668) based on the Hebridean Isle of Coll in the UK. Since 1967 Project Trust has been sending volunteers to Africa, Asia and the Americas for a wide variety of long-term volunteering projects including teaching, social care work, outward-bound instructing and journalism. Project Trust is a unique Gap Year organisation in that they send volunteers away for a whole year as they feel this is the only way for a volunteer to learn about and appreciate the local culture and so to be able to make a positive difference.
