David Calvert-Orange is a retired schoolmaster with years of experience teaching History, RE and Art as well as being an Egyptologist, artist and world traveller. Together with Pamela Nolan, over the past few years he has dedicated his life to the establishment of a small South Yorkshire based charity to help the destitute in India through education and self help schemes and now we have a day care centre that will guarantee the education of up to 50 children by providing their school uniforms and books and extra tuition in the evenings. We hope to open more of these in the future … but we need your help!
