This is Hampshire (UK)
A HAMPSHIRE businessman has returned from a ten-day trip after helping to build a community centre in Cambodia.
Stuart Maggs, from Southampton, decided to take part in the charitable challenge on behalf of ActionAid with 21 other people from across the UK.
The 56-year-old travelled to the remote province of Banteay Meanchey in the north-west region of the country to help build two health and community centres.
The managing director of an alcohol import company spent his time digging, laying bricks and plastering while living closely with the local community.
Stuart, of Bassett Avenue, said: "I decided to take part in the challenge to give a community in Cambodia a better life. It was very rewarding and very humbling and I'm on top of the list to do it again this year."
ActionAid is now looking for more volunteers to take up the challenge to build vital family homes for the Kamaiya people and also have the chance to experience Nepalese culture and explore Kathmandu.
The charity works with local people in the poorest parts of the world, helping them to help themselves for their future.
