Ten years after a supporter tour to Mali, Anne Parker from Leeds is still energised. She says: ‘It had a lasting impact. I realised that being a supporter is a long-term commitment.’
Matthew Reed, Christian Aid's director of marketing and supporter care, adds: ‘Visiting Christian Aid partners in the developing world and seeing their work is a powerful and even life-changing experience,’
