One of the things I've definitely gained from being involved with the Veolia's WaterAId group is being able to engage with people and talk about why the work WaterAid is important.
This came in good stead on Thursday as I represented WaterAid at the Cardiff University Fresher's Fair. The response from the students was amazing, from people wanting to know more about WaterAid, to people fully aware of the issues WaterAid address and wanting to get involved in fundraising.
There were even some challenging questions from some students about just how effective aid is in developing countries, I could only answer based on what I had seen in Bangladesh, it seemed to convince as we had run out of WaterAid leaflets by the end of the day!
