Project LINX
The Project LINX Expedition launches on the 18th November 2006 from the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester. The Vehicle will be shipped out to Mombassa where the Project LINX Team will pickup their route to the Global Friends Schools. Working along side the Ethiopian Wolf Project, the team will be able to encourage the children to take a more active role in conservation whilst at the same time delivering vital school materials and musical instruments to further their education.
After driving on to Ngonzi and Ol Moti schools in Kenya and working with the children in workshops and again delivering vital aid, the team will work with a conservation education group in Tanzania using music, video and dance as a medium to deliver the message of conservation. The final leg of the Expedition takes the team through Malawi and Mozambique and into South Africa where they will perform further workshops and concerts, one of which with the Internationally renowned charity The Buskaid Soweto String Ensemble in Johannesburg. The encore to the Project will be the arrival at the Shamwari Big Cat Rescue Centre where the team will perform one last time the Born Free signature tune and handover the keys to the Expedition vehicle A Land Rover Defender.
