Exams are Finished... Let's Dance!

The girls at Janani Home have been working hard every morning and evening, revising for their exams. The support that they have for one another is fantastic to see, and it paid off! There may have been a few grumbles here and there, but they are all proud of themselves and each other. The staff at Prime Trust and our sponsors are especially proud, and treated the girls to a cinema trip for all of their hard work.


The girls have regained their energy, and are in high spirits during their holiday week. Some of our generous sponsors brought round a noodle feast for the girls. But before food... a party! The girls were bursting with energy (even hyper in some cases) and brought a smile to everyone's face with their wonderful dancing. Any chance to play their favourite tunes and have a boogie, they will take it. 

An Evening of Kind Words, Dance and a Few Tears

Farewell Paula

Every single person who walks through the door to work with us is invaluable, each having such an impact on the organisation and the lives of the people supported by Prime Trust. Paula, who travelled from Spain to work with us for two months was no exception. She has accomplished so much during her time here, teaching the girls at Janani Home many new lessons and skills, such as how to care for and respect your body through the practise of meditation and yoga. 

Her departure was felt by all. However, all of our staff and the girls at Janani Home made sure to throw a wonderful farewell party. The girls worked hard on their goodbye cards, featuring the kindest words and colourful characters. These will no doubt be cherished by Paula forever. 

Just when it seemed that the excitement was coming to an end, the girls surprised us with a terrific dance which they had spent much time rehearsing. Their huge smiles and grins were dazzling and extremely contagious. Paula also treated us to a performance of some Spanish dancing. Some of the girls began to imitate the moves, soon stopping though to marvel at Paula, dancing with such attitude and style. 

It is extremely difficult to say farewell to someone so amazing, but the party is now a precious memory for all to cherish. This perhaps is not surprising, precious memories are abundant with such a wonderful group of people. There will no doubt be many more stories to share.
