About Me
- 50 FOR THE CHILD
- My name is Charles Dawson-Amoah, I’m a British national and I’m 36 years old. I was born in a small town called Cape Coast on the coast, approx. 77.4 miles from Accra, the capital of Ghana. Years ago, my town used to be the capital on “the gold coast” when Ghana was still part of the British colony. After my education, I started working for DHL Ghana, before leaving to join the British Army. In my life i have seen many upsetting things, including child soldiers and children suffering as a consequence of either war, or because of the actions of adults – who I believe should’ve known better. It is at this point, I promised myself I would do something personally to raise this as an issue and to try to do something in my own small way. So, with that in mind, I promised myself that every year I’d do a trek – walking 1,000 miles over 20 days to raise this plight to the politicians and people of the world, that there is still a lot to be done for children across the world.This walk starts on 1st nov -20th nov from Sierra Leone to Ghana.
