We are a community of passionate Home Educating families on a mission to raise £50,000 for an immersive educational journey to Ghana—where our children will walk history, taste culture, and strengthen their faith.
Why Ghana
For many of us, Ghana is more than a place—it’s a connection to heritage, history, and identity. This journey allows us to explore historical sites, engage with local communities, and deepen our understanding of faith and learning beyond books.
The Learning Experience
This is not a holiday—it’s an extension of our children’s education. Through Beyond Books, we’ve heard, drawn, and imagined the stories of Ghana. Now, we get to walk, taste, and experience what we've learned—side by side with family.
