About Watson's Malawi Partnership

The Watson's Malawi Partnership draws on the resources of the George Watson's College community to build sustainable, mutually beneficial partnerships with organisations and individuals in Malawi.

In keeping with the ethos of ‘dignified partnerships’ put forward by the Scotland Malawi Partnership, our programme focuses on four areas where we can help to relieve and prevent poverty amongst young people in Malawi on a sustainable basis:

  • Education
  • Health and well-being
  • Sports and culture
  • The environment.

Look out for our second netball court

Following the success of Netball for All's court at Kaliyeka Primary School, we are helping to fund a second court at Ching'ombe Primary School. Scarcely a year has passed since the Mayor of Lilongwe officially opened the netball court . It has since then enjoyed constant use - with school girls from the community and many of the national netball teams . Many girls have remained in school longer than they might simply so that they can continue to play for the school netball team. This is why we were delighted to support Netball for All's proposal to build a second court at Ching'ombe. And why Aaron , pictured above signing the build contract, has once again assumed the role of project manager to deliver this much needed community facility. Good luck, Aaron! You can follow the court's progress on Netball for All .
