Oxford University Professor Praises Charity’s Work in Ghana 

An Oxford University professor has commended Community Action Ghana, a charity improving lives in Ghana’s Volta Region. 

Professor Sir Muir Gray, director of the Optimal Ageing Programme, stated: “Amazing developments have taken place in healthcare but at least as, and probably even more, important than the provision of high-value healthcare are two other determinants – clean, clear water and literacy, particularly the educational level of girls and women.” 

The charity, founded by Adrian and Heather Rosser and their daughter Alyrene, has built three toilet blocks, refurbished five libraries, and is nearing completion of a fourth toilet block.

Three more villages have expressed interest. Adrian Rosser explained: “Heather and I were both on VSO in Ghana in 1967. We then worked in Nigeria and Botswana for many years. In 2009, Alyrene was looking for voluntary work, and we saw the need in Ghana.” 

Rosser will visit Ghana from November 17-29 to evaluate projects and work on a new borehole water project.
