resident worker,
Mutunga,
who has experience ofworking
with street
children
in the Dagoretti area and is supported
by his wife. Over the last
few years we have improved
the facilities.
All the rooms have concrete
floors and the school room is well equipped
with desks. There is running
water, separate shower and toilet facilities for girls and boys, and
electricity which has made lighting safer and improved

term the trustees are exploring
options to provide a
regular income which involves
development
ofthe current site with some|| ||||||flats /offices. The local area is being developed
rapidly and there is a|| ||||||need for residential
and commercial
property for sale or rent. Whilst
it|will| ||||||soon cease to be an appropriate
site for rehabilitation
programmes
it|| ||||||could become an income stream for the charity for the work to|| ||||||continue at the other site and build
in further self-sustainability.|| ||||||The trustees are being advised
by another Christian
organisation,
Hand|| ||||||in Hand, who have expedience
both ofdeveloping
land to provide|| ||||||an income stream for charities, and ofraising
investment
funds|| ||||||to kick start the process.|| ||||||A Memorandum
of Understanding
was signed
in December 2017|| ||||||between the charity,
Hand

partner|in| ||||||Kenya. This project is intended
to release an income to support the|| ||||||charity
into the future. Deployment
ofthat income
will be planned
while|| ||||||the building

on the Dagoretti Corner site. Aformal|| ||||||contract between DCSCP and BEAL (the development
company
in|| ||||||Kenya associated
with Hand

ofthe site was|| ||||||negotiated
in the last months of2021. It is expected that this contract|will| ||||||be signed early in 2022.|| ||||||Start ofconstruction
