Great news to share as 2025 comes to an end, is that we are now officially a registered charity in the UK. Its been a long time coming we know, but we have been so focused on continuing our work in The Gambia alongside our day to day work we just didn’t get round to starting the process. But we have now and we ecstatic, we will now double our fund raising efforts to continue supporting those in need in The Gambia. Thank you for your continued support.

Generation Gambia was founded in 2012. We want to work with families and communities in The Gambia to assist people with access to basic health care 
 education  or training, and support self-sufficiency. We hope to raise funds in Manchester and the northwest with; pop-up events, craft fairs car boot sales music events and cash donations.
Once we are established and known in the Gambia we want to be seen as a Can do charity offering guidance support to communities in Gambia. We have already been supporting communities in Sanchaba, Kerr Serrign, Bakau, Bijilo and Faraba Banta. Our charity encourages local craftspeople and buys local handmade crafts that we sell to raise funds for our charitable work.
