Nigel Priestley with his colleagues Ranjit Uppal and Claire Monkhouse met a surprise co-visitor at Entebbe Airport in Uganda 

Alexandra Burke of X Factor fame flew in on the same plane to do work for Comic Relief.  Nigel Ranjit and Claire are in Kampala to train Uganda lawyers In best practice, office procedures and advocacy.

The visit is part of the unique twinning link between Huddersfield Law Society and the Uganda Law Society. Last year this link won an award at the Law Society Excellence Awards. They will be working with 70 lawyers before travelling to Masindi to see the work of Meltham Mustardseed with local orphans.

Nigel Priestley commented “Alexandra was very interested to hear about Meltham’s remarkable project and the real changes it has brought to the children’s lives”
