Arne, Larry and Inger Johanne Osland from the Haugland Rehabilitation Centre, were invited to give a presentation to the 130 delegates at the Annual Meeting of the Sogn og Fjordane Red Cross in Balestrand about the partnership between the Rehab Centre, RCN and our shared connection with the Red Cross. An important message to the delegates was an update on the work done for our new centre for visitors – UWC Connect, which will give an increased capacity for the Red Cross summer camps and also possibilities for Red Cross activities during term time.

Red Cross in Førde

On the evening of 14 March students from the College were warmly welcomed by members of the Red Cross Youth in Førde who had organised a gathering to welcome two Youth Delegates from Colombia who will be engaged in local Red Cross activities for the next two months. Our three Colombians, Yerson, Yeison, and Andres, plus other Spanish-speaking students enjoyed the warm interaction with Willian and William, who have been in Norway for about seven months and relished the opportunity to converse in their native tongue. Those of us who didn’t speak Spanish enjoyed the company of the Norwegians, and we all enjoyed the pizza and the presentations, introducing ourselves and our organisations/projects. This was a first connecting step, and we aim for regular contact with local Red Cross youth.
