Educate for Life was co-founded by two friends from university, Ash Patel and Ed Forrest, in 2005. They had both dreamed of opening a school in India and when they realised that the other shared their dream it seemed like the only thing to do was shake hands and agree to do it.

The idea gestated in their minds for 18 months or then when in Uganda together visiting refugee camps it pooped out again, with all the basic principles of schools as socially, ecologically and economically sustainable hubs of meaning community development fully formed. 7 years later they those principles are still guide our approach to education and development.

In the interim Ed and Ash were joined as trustees by Jas Grewal and Shivani Patel, and most recently Laura Jones in an advisory capacity to help us clearly and effectively share our experience.

 

 

Meet the trustees - Ed, Ash, Shivani and Jas!
