The latest well was delivered in partnership with UK charity Wellfound and funded by the Bassadone Automotive Group.

Action4Schools said Bassadone Automotive Group has now funded 19 water wells, helping provide clean water to more than 20,000 people.

The organisation said the latest project would provide safe, clean water to more than 1,000 people in the village of Bumpehtoke in Moyamba.

“We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to BAG for their incredible generosity over the years, this is their 19th water well and together we have provided clean water to over 20,000 people when we add all the BAG wells together, an amazing achievement".

Danny Llamas, a member of the BAG Corporate Social Responsibility team, said: “We are proud to support the outstanding work Action4Schools is doing and encourage other companies to help fund additional water projects that create long-term change for vulnerable communities. It’s incredibly rewarding to know our contribution is making a lasting difference.”
