Rarely do teachers know whether they make lasting impressions on students and finding out they did can be one of the most profound rewards of all. Fartun is a teacher at Ladan IDP temporary learning space supported by UNICEF. “There is a powerful bond between me and not only Mohamud but all the children. When they are happy, I feel at peace. On the other hand, when something happens to them, I feel a deep unease,” explains Fartun. “That is why I will fight until the last day for their happiness. And this will come to pass through quality education.”
In Dollow, UNICEF, through its partner Himilo Relief and Development Association (HIRDA) has been active in addressing the educational needs of children, specifically through the construction of Temporary Learning Spaces (TLS), supporting a total of number of 2,566 children including 1,252 girls. Through the current education in emergencies programming supported by the Government of Germany through KfW Development Bank, the Government of Finland and the US Agency for International Development (USAID), children are provided with clean, safe drinking water for daily consumption, teaching and learning materials and 50 teachers are provided with monthly incentives.

Parcevall Hall Gardens are a lasting testament to the remarkable insight of Sir William Milner (1893-1960), 8th Baronet of Nun Appleton, nr York; who in 1927 began on a project to rebuild the derelict 16th /early 17th century shell of Parcevall Hall at Skyreholme, near Appletreewick in North Yorkshire.
Sir William, although standing at a formidable 6’7”, had the reputation of being a gentle giant and despite his title, and having HRH Queen Mary, a frequent visitor to Parcevall Hall, as his Godmother, he was a reluctant socialite.
The final major project of Sir William’s lifetime was as a founder member and second Honorary Director of the Northern Horticultural Society (1955-60), pioneering the establishment and development of Harlow Carr Gardens, near Harrogate.
Once completed, the Hall was to become Sir William’s home for thirty years and he continued to develop the gardens up to his death. Sir William took full advantage of the geography to create a unique garden that provides year round interest.
As a gardener Sir William chose his site wisely. At the top of the gardens the alkaline soil overlays the limestone rock and at the foot of the hill the soil is acid over gritstone, which makes it ideal for a wide range of species and many of Sir William’s hybrid rhododendrons.
For the horticulturist an extensive range of specialist plants flourish throughout the year. This includes an interesting collection of old apple varieties. A wide variety of alpine and woodland plants, unusual perennials and many specimen trees and shrubs.
Visitors will find formal terraces provide vantage points from where they can pause to appreciate the stunning rocky outcrop of Simons Seat
The structured areas are balanced with woodlands that are a haven for wildlife, inter-linked with many garden rooms to discover on the way. For the energetic, a Cliff Walk overlooking the limestone valley of Trollers Gill provides a dramatic vista.
After Sir William’s death the gardens declined up to the mid 1980s. A restoration program commenced; forever changing the gardens are enjoying a vibrant renaissance having been returned to its former glory
But the work does not stop there, the gardens continue to evolve.
The Hall itself is not open to garden visitors and since 1963, has been used by the Bradford Diocese as a retreat house and conference centre; its architectural features can be appreciated at close range from several vantage points.
