Welcome to our journey........

Life is a journey and we are making ours. 

Emerging Leaders started the seeds of its journey in Africa in 2005/6. The years since those fragile seeds were planted have been full of amazing stories of Hope that have transformed peoples personal lives, family lives and whole communities. 

And now we are just about to embark on a whole new chapter as we have decided to move to Kenya this Autumn. We would love to invite you to share this exciting adventure with us as we, Jane and Trevor, move out to Kenya in early September for 3 months. 

Why are we doing this?  Well, lets see!
1. Baz Luhrmans film Strictly Ballroom says, "A life lived in fear is a life half lived"-  We are only too aware of all our own fears and anxieties that would lead us to miss the opportunities that open up along our pathway. So, Carpe Diem! 

2. We have the opportunity to teach Leadership for Hope to over 1000 more people in Kenya and South Africa.

3. By Christmas we are going to leave 30 trainers of leaders who will take this programme to Kenya, Ivory Coast, South Africa, Ehtiopia and Zimbabwe.




..... here are Trevor and Jane on Lumley Beach, Sierra Leone, listening to the stories of the young men whose lives were changed forever by the civil war 



We would love you to come with us to Kenya and South Africa to see what delivering hope through leadership training looks like from the inside.
