Over the last few days I have been in constant touch with Mike Meegan, International Director and founder of ICROSS as the situation in Kenya has deteriorated. Early this morning Mike was full of ideas as usual, thinking about new projects, and coping with the malaria programmes, water programmes etc . We had been talking on the internet about possible new grants and ideas for funding when Mike went offline. About an hour later he called my mobile to say that he and his staff were evacuating their base in Ngong because it was no longer safe. They intend to head into Maasai land away from the slum and urban areas where the trouble is at it's worst. To do that they must travel along roads that are currentl very dangerous. I am waiting to hear from Mike that he and his friends and staff are safe.
