Tick, tock, tick, tock... and so the year is speeding past us all! Have you had a chance to take some time out and reflect on the months that are behind us? Have you achieved your goals or at least some of them? I hope so. If not, remember, the year is only half way. One of your goals was to be involved with D4D and for that we thank you. You are making a difference in this world. Is does not matter how small or big your involvement is - you are doing something.

Time has also not stood still for D4D. You are reading our first e-newsletter and we are very excited about our new website which should be up and running very soon. We will let you know. On this point we would again like to thank Malcolm Ball, Kiran Ranjit & Petronella Carolus as well as John Stokes for INXCOM for their wonderful donations that made this all possible.

Keep on moving...
