The importance of a good night’s sleep

A lack of sleep can have detrimental effects on a child’s education and ability to learn.

But many of our Nasio children in western Kenya are without a bed, and sleep every night on a blanket laid on the mud floor of their family home due to poverty. This is why The Nasio Trust is launching an appeal to raise £8,000 to provide beds for our 115 children who currently have no beds.

Sylvia’s Story

My name is Sylvia Omurunga and I am 24 years old, a second born in a family of three siblings.

My parents divorced when I was 9 months old and my mother took me back with her to her parents home. I was brought up at my maternal grandparents. My mother died in 2014 when I was 16 years old. After my mother’s death we were left alone and we had to manage ourselves in a child headed family alongside my sibling and cousins for one year before the family members brought in one of my elder cousins to take care of us.
