Zapallal
The focal point of the project in Peru is at Zapallal,
near Lima, where we have established a refuge from poverty and disadvantage
(to view most recent photos click here).
Ongoing activities in Peru:

From time to time we welcome volunteers
at the refuge in Peru. We will nearly always try to discuss
this face to face before selection, and would encourage
volunteers to be actively engaged with us before going.
Though there is no formal charge we require volunteers to
raise money for us to support the ongoing costs of our work
and to cover the costs of their own stay. We can give advice
on this. Many volunteers raise sponsorship money for us
by doing the Inca
Trail. There is a whole range of activities that volunteers
may be engaged in, and the more varied the skills that a
volunteer can offer (plus a working knowledge of Spanish),
the better.

Our refuge is to the north of Lima (Cono
Norte) and is situated within a particularly disadvantaged
part of the Lima conurbation.
Our work there and in other parts of Peru continues
within the complicated economic and political climate in the country,
as described elsewhere.
