WATER PROJECT

Provision of Water to Project Site

WYCE's first water project was the construction of a borehole to deliver fresh and clean water to our volunteers Lodge. We have since completed our second Water Project which aimed to provide water from the project's borehole to the Health Centre, Primary Classroom, and Early Years Centre. In addition, we have given villagers access to clean drinking water by erecting two standpipes in the village.

Future Plans

We also have some grant application which, if achieved, will mean that a full water system will be developed throughout Madina Salaam. Furthermore, we are working together with Muslim Aid to provide a fire hydrant which would enable fire engines from Brikama (30minutes away) to attend fires in Combo South by refilling in Madina Salaam instead of returning back to Brikama. This would be a particularly useful service especially through the dry season when 2007 saw 4 major bush fires in that region only. None of which were able to be helped by the fire service due to shortage of water facilities in that area.
