Our activities include employing The Gambia's first turtle warden; community based forest management; annual tree planting exercises; improving community health and sanitation; campaigning for more sustainable patterns of development; and an annual village cleaning day. GEPADG is currently restoring an important coastal lagoon with help from the Global Environment Fund, the World Bank, and World Wide Fund for nature (WWF).
The lagoon offers wonderful bird-watching opportunities, with over 75 species recorded, including sightings of White crowned Robin-Chat, Yellow-Crowned Gonolet and Northern Shoveler. Come along and see for yourself! We also arrange trips to our sister site of Nyafurang in Senegal.

Please visit the Pageant website to buy your gift and make a real difference to GEPADG's work. We pride ourselves in offering a more direct link to the places in need than can be achieved by larger charities.
We also need volunteers to help us with our work in this beautiful coastal village.
