At the April meeting, Northern Highlands members were once again pleased to hear of the adventures of another of our Trish Noonan Travel Award recipients. Jacqui Stacey showed the members that their contribution to her travel with Volunteer Eco Students Abroad programme was money well spent. Jacqui spoke of her experiences in South Africa at an animal conservation park, School and Orphanage and Day Care Centre. Jacqui said that the extreme poverty and poor living conditions she experienced gave her a greater appreciation of her life here at home.
