Family and ZHRO stage a vigil at Heathrow [26th November 2016] to prevent the forced deportation of Olive
We arrived from about 2:30 pm for the 17:25 KQ101 Kenya Airwars flight to Nairobi [for onward transfer to Harare for Olive]
I arrived late due to problems on the Piccadilly line out of London – how frustrating! I distributed the 100 leaflets that I had brought with me. However Ellen [Olives Mum] had printed out several pages of her own!
We quickly engaged with several passengers who were checking in their luggage. Leaflets were being handed over to both those checking in and those who had just their hand luggage. Some were extremely interested; a couple thought we were trying to sell something – such is modern life.

At our well attended first interim meeting, held at the Royal Festival Hall on Saturday the 12th November 2016, we heard of the progress to date.
The MC of the day was Todd Maforimbo who ably led the discussions and debate.
Progress on the selection of independent trustees was updated and we expect final appointments in the coming week. Which will mean we can then move to create the Charitable Incorporated Organisation. Not a Company - but set up as a Charity, with a Charitable Constitution using the Standard Charity Commission models for a membership based organisation.
We anticipate having our Charity number within 4 weeks of the submission.
