Born and bred from the Aquaculture sector in order to create a voluntary organization to contribute to the alleviation of poverty through small-scale aquaculture, Aquaculture without Frontiers (AwF), has now entered its 12th year and this promises to be the most exiting so far.

The organisation runs on the smell of an oily rag. AwF is not an organisation built around creating a massive bank of donated funds, creating overheads and paying high salaries to staff but on actually working with the great goodwill of aquaculture people and doing things that create positive outcomes for the poor and hungry of the world. It is the real meaning of what a charity is all about - people give what they can, whether that is a few dollars or more importantly their time, knowledge and experience. It is a real gem in today's world of professional NGO's and it is a credit to all of those involved and all that have or are still serving its needs.

Come and join the session and see/hear how you can assist.
