I met up with a youth group on the very last leg of their 3 day walk along the River Thames to raise money for Samaritan's Purse Turn on the Tap campaign.
Many women and children in Africa have to walk an average of 4 miles a day to collect water for their families, carrying weights of around 20kg. Even then this water is often not clean, causing sickness. Samaritan's Purse water and sanitation programmes in Liberia, Niger, Mozambique and Uganda provide water filters for families, bore holes and wells for communities and latrines.
