Find Your Feet in action

Our approach is not to dictate how the communities we work with tackle the poverty they experience, but instead we enable them to decide how they want to build a better future. This means we don't give handouts, instead, we listen and provide them with the skills, training and confidence they need to help themselves. It takes time to get it right because we want to support long-lasting and sustainable change rather than provide a quick-fix.

What we do

There is no single 'answer' to ending poverty. That's why the support we offer people ranges from training in sustainable agricultural techniques to training in advocacy skills.

Where we work

"Why India and Malawi?" is a question we are often asked. In 2004 we decided to concentrate our efforts here because our work was already having a significant impact, but there was a need to do so much more.

Who we work with

The people we work with are isolated in rural areas, meaning that they often don't have access to the resources and services they need. And their marginalisation means they lack the confidence to challenge this situation.

Our approach

We are a small organisation and proud of it. Being small means that we can work really closely with rural communities, listening to them and supporting them to work towards the sort of community they want.
