    &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Chris and team arrive in Uganda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The projects include building a new school hall at Bulubandi Primary School, and improving sanitation at Bunafu Primary School, with the construction of five new toilet blocks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Sharing his enthusiasm for the trip, Chris says, &lt;em&gt;&quot;It&#39;s an incredibly rewarding experience to meet and spend time with these children. Their positivity and dreams are&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&#160;inspiring; you can see the determination in their eyes.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;What makes this journey even more heart-warming is that he will be sharing it with his two children, Daisy and Jacob.&#160;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Chris has previously undertaken three trips to Africa, including one with &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.bannatyne.co.uk/operation-smile&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Operation Smile&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, a charity specialising in repairing cleft palates, alongside former Dragon&#39;s Den star Duncan Bannatyne. He also supports a children’s home in the Algarve.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;More recently, in Maui, Chris volunteered his foundational skills as a chef and organised a group to make food for 100 Hawaii fire victims.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Originally hailing from Grimsby, UK, Chris is now a strong advocate for the Algarve, which has been his home for the past decade. In 2012 he founded Ideal Homes Portugal, and currently travels the globe, hosting property events to showcase the advantages of living in Portugal.&lt;/p&gt;
