Recently, our UK team was involved in a charity event with Just a Drop, an international development charity that brings communities much needed safe water and sanitation. During the pandemic, the work of Just a Drop became even more crucial as protecting communities from the virus became its top priority. The charity helped safeguard the lives of many by producing and handing out educational leaflets about the dangers of COVID-19, as well as providing handwashing facilities at local markets, so they could remain open and continue to feed the community. Just a Drop has had close ties to the travel industry for more than 20 years and is currently the official sponsor of the World Travel Market. As travel begins to emerge from the pandemic, Just a Drop recently launched its Back With A Splash campaign to help raise funds for its amazing work. Our UK team was proud to be involved in Back With A Splash and to support Just a Drop in making improvements to the living conditions of those in some of the world’s most deprived areas.
