December the 1st is World AIDS Day, 30 years since the first case was identified. 30 million people have died as a result of AIDS since then and young people account for half of all new infections, that's approximately 3 million a year. Here at Restless Development we want to see that figure reduced and eventually eradicated and you can help us on the 1st December by getting involved in some of our online activities!

10 members of the Youth Action Club based at Tom Linson High School in Makiteh, Port Loko, were among the privileged group of Restless Development volunteers and staff who met Princess Anne during a state visit to Sierra Leone last week. The Princess was on a week long tour of West Africa taking in Sierra Leone and Ghana. As a recipient of DFID funding, Restless Development was approached by the British High Commission to showcase some of our peer-to-peer education techniques promoting youth sexual and reproductive health. Six drama volunteers performed a ten minute skit exploring some of the causes and consequences of teenage pregnancy. Following this, the Princess circulated around the room talking to groups of staff, volunteers and students about their experiences and their work.
