Having just received an update from Paul Walsh and the Jungle Crows in Kolkatta, I thought it was time I did a blog post on all things KHELO.
KHELO Update
Paul sent me a link to a wonderful blog post written by a group of youngsters that had just visited them in Kolkata from Scotland. They were completing the service element of their Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award and it seems they had a great time. You can read all about it in their post here, and please do share this with your friends:

Paul also reported that their Winter Camp at Christmas was a huge success, with more than 370 children attending on Christmas morning – CLICK HERE – to see all the photos from that.
