A wonderful interview with Emma. 14yrs ago Emma took it upon herself to raise money with the help of her family and friends for a project in Zambia. She wasn't sure as to what she would put the money to until she arrived there but finally decided to build a refuge for young girls so that they could attend school without fear of being attacked. In the 14yrs the facility, that was originally meant to house 44 girls there, now had nearly 150. Emma is hoping to raise some funds to facilitate the community to build an extension. 

Emma, originally from Coscorrig, daughter of Pat and Ann Gilchreest is now married to Nico and has two children. She lives in Moate. Emma talks us through her time going through St. Raphael's, hanging out in JP's! Going back to college and working in areas that have made such a difference to many communities. Thanks for coming in Emma, lovely chatting with you.
