Amos Travel

‘To meet the people involved; to hear their stories; to hear of their hopes and fears and to see the difference Amos’ partners make is such a privilege.’

Nothing compares with a personal visit. Amos therefore seeks to take our supporters to visit each of our partner projects.

Through these trips our supporters meet and spend time with the people involved and experience something of the situation they face each day. They are able to gain an understanding of the issues behind the headlines and see what life is like on the ground.

We are aware that people have limited holiday leave. We therefore seek to ensure that people have an inspiring holiday break and have the time and input required to stop and reflect on what they’ve witnessed.

Amos Trust is aware of the damage air travel causes to the environment and seeks to limit its use of air travel. When air travel is necessary Amos Trust offsets its carbon emissions. We do not feel that it is our place to arrange the offsetting of emissions for those involved in our trips, as many will already be offsetting emissions, but recommend it to all.
