Food and Accomodation

The project is based a Brackenhurst Hotel and Conference centre in Limuru, just 30 kilometers from Nairobi in the lush, green, tea-growing highlands. A key characteristic of Brackenhurst is an indigenous forest that covers over 90 acres of the 100-acre property. Kenya is a beautiful and diverse country, with much for a visitor to experience. It is home to some of the world’s best safari locations and offers the most diverse and abundant game viewing opportunities, as well as being in the heart of the fascinating Maasai tribe community.

Three meals are provided each weekday and the food is a mixture of International and Kenyan cuisine. Breakfast includes tea, coffee, cereals, toast, jam and peanut butter as well as eggs, sausages and pancakes served in rotation. Lunch is usually taken on project and a hot meal is cooked freshly in the evening.
