Ws Notes
It was just a village meeting but not a repair. The purpose of the meeting was to bring the two committee's for both boreholes on board and informing them of the next steps to take to fix the wells. Unfortunately the members turned up in small numbers as most of them had taken their children for registration at the school. The few members who turned up agreed to another meeting scheduled for the 30th October. They hope every body will be present that day

Report Photos

113 Bulyowa B borehole has no soak pit but has a fence.
114 This is another soak pit to one of the boreholes.
115 The above borehole in the photo is called upper bulyowa nakavule borehole.it was very dirty, with no fence and has less members on the committee. Kibo staff will help them to re elect a full committee.
118 Nakavule borehole has no soak pit hence the water just flows and collects under this tree
