do you know the organisation that sends professional people out to third world countries to help train people out there with skills?

I agree with Pickle! I've worked with them for years and I can honestly say, there is no finer organisation!

BTW, if you're interested, there's need for trainers at a hotel in Nigeria, a community craft trainer in Mongolia, and a skills trainer in Tanzania....

Why be content to just walk, when you can spread your wings and soar!

hi well thanks for your information. No VillageVicar, money does not interest me, I would be happy to do this work for free.

I just meant that would my skills be useful.

Thanks to both of you, I will email VSO about placements.
I have a friend who works in a Leprosy and Aids centre in India for 6 months of the year and spends 6 months here. She has been doing this for about 10 years.

She is over 60 and has ten times the energy that I have.

Give it a try - you only live once and you should go with your heart.

Mini: I've lived and worked all over the world. My mission covers the Republic of Moldova and Romania:

VSO have quite a few listings where your skills could be used. Have a look here:

And if you're interested in any of them have a chin-wag with Gemma at the VSO office. She's lovely!


BTW, I could use you in Moldova as well!

Thanks Fr Bill for the links. I'm interested in your projects in Moldova and will be visiting those websites to learn more.

what sort of help do you need in Moldova?
Mini: It's quite broad. You'll find a list of needs ranging from our children's home, to the school, to the village, to the prisons. Many of them are listed on the blogs and primary site. Please feel free to write me at: [email protected]

Best of luck
