In the next few days there are going to be a lot of different people descending on Hunar Ghar. As well as Deepak and the team, Teddy and Paritha are already there doing a fab job improving the classrooms, building new ones and getting rainwater harvesting systems working. Ed, Ina & I (train reservations allowing) will be there on Saturday and Ruhani, a new member of the team, will join us a few days later.

All this means there’s the potential to begin thinking about some big changes at Hunar Ghar. Until now, Deepak’s been struggling just to keep his head above water, having to almost single handedly manage everything at the school; hopefully with a little more support everyone will have more freedom to innovate & get even more creative in the way they work with the children.

Of course, with so many people, there’s also the potential for things to be disorganised and slightly chaotic for a while, but hopefully that will be something we can manage & move with.
