Para 120
In November. Caroline Wilson from Be
Global, confirmed th8t sho would only
provide donations for Jan Jan Bureh Nursery
through School Support Gambia (SSG).
SSG is a much larger charity than Friends of
Jan Jan Bureh (JJB) Nursery but with
broadly similar aims and values. already
supporting several nurseries in the Gambia.
Our Liaison Offi￿r met with Lady ￿'ra
Dalton, one of the Trustees of SSG, to
discuss the future inclusion of our Nursery in
the evenl of a problem with either funding or
management. SSG was willing to meet with
JJB Nursery management committee to
explain their proposed role in the
organisalion, support and training of staff.
Unfortunately, JJB Nursery made the
decision lo renydin independent and to S81f-
fund the Nursery. They refused io meet with
presentalives of SSG. who
magnanimously extended Ihe offer for 2024-
25, however it would not remain open
ended.
The Trustees of The Friends of JJB Nursery
wrote a lettef to both senior members of the
management team (Tida and Saiba) to notify
Ihem of SSG'S interest and Be Global's
change of direction regarding donations,
indicating that the Trustees felt the best
oplion for the future sustainability of JJB
Nursery lay with the charity School Support
Gambia. The Nursery Management
Committee refused lo sign across the
Nursery to SSG and so donations from Be
Global to Friends of JJB Nursery were
suspended.
The JJB Nursery management commlttee
Issued a statement: 'As a community
Nursery, the Management Committee
refers to work with
eo
le from the same

region rather than others we don'l know,.
The Committee took on the management of
the school from DeGember 2023.
School Support Gambia made arrangements
for when the money to run JJB Nursery was
no longer enough lo sustain it.
The Nursery continued to be run by the
committee, but staff retention continued to
be an issue. The fees were increased
slightly to help offset costs.
