A Shropshire woman and her family travelled to earthquake-ravaged Turkey to deliver desperately-needed aid.
Julie Kim, a lead boarding parent at Acton Burnell-based Concord College and son Samuel, 17, a Concord student, flew during half term to Adana where she joined her husband Hongil Kim, a business director, who was out in Turkey leading relief teams for five weeks.
With the Easter break approaching, Julie – who has been working at Concord College for eight years – will be returning to Turkey where she and her family will continue to provide support.“You can drive for hours and collapsed buildings are everywhere you look. She has also been working hard to keep her friends and family informed about the long-term impact of the earthquakes.
