Trocaire Box: Enestina (9) lives with her family in a small village in central Malawi. Every day she gets up at 5am & walks a kilometre with her mother to collect water from a small local river. Then she carries a heavy bucket back to their home. The impact of this daily toil is huge & the effects of poor water access reaches every aspect of the community's life. Enestina & the other children in her village are late for school, or are too tired to study because of time spent collecting water. The water they do collect is dirty, which leads to illness & lack of irrigation means crops fail & little food. But each day they have no option. They must collect dirty water from the same river.
