RAG told The Mancunion that the trip allows a “team of students to experience the wildlife, culture and landscape of the award winning tourist country Uganda, whilst making a huge difference to local communities by building a playground and teaching children to use their creativity in education, employment and life.
“They see the last remaining wild silverback gorillas in the world, whilst having an awesome time, which will impact on themselves and the country they visit.”
