Nikki is just this week back from Uganda!
 The Africa Childrens Development Trust (ACDT) was launched in 2007 by Nikki Collinson a chiropractor from the Isle of Wight, England, following a long held vision of helping children in Africa reach their potential. After spending 2 ½ months in Africa the foundations of the charity evolved & the Mission Statement was created:
‘The Africa Childrens Development Trust is a UK based charity dedicated to providing chiropractic care & protection from malaria to underprivileged children in Uganda. The Trust aims to provide 6 monthly chiropractic care to children under 16 years of age living in some of the poorest areas, villages & orphanages. The Trust will also strive to provide each child with a mosquito net to support the prevention of malaria which kills approx 800,000 children in Africa each year.' 
The mission statement is very much seen as phase one in the development of the ACDT. It is hoped that the success of the ACDT in Uganda will allow more & more children to receive our support & that as we develop as a charity we can begin to extend this support to other countries in Africa.
