Young humanitarian Gemma Steele's special relationship with Kenya.
Tha dl霉th-dh脿imh air a bhith aig an t猫 貌g, Gemma Steele, a choisinn duaisean airson a h-obair daonnachd, le Ceinia fad greis a-nise, agus thog i dachaigh dhilleachdain, St Jerome鈥檚, an sin ann an 2014. 脌s d猫idh p貌sadh aig an taigh ann an Uibhist a Deas aig deireadh 2018, chaidh i fh猫in agus an duin鈥� aice, Shaun MacFhionghain, air turas s貌nraichte aig toiseach 2019 airson beannachadh p貌saidh le a teaghlach eile ann an Ceinia.
Anns an d脿rna pr貌gram de 2, Am P貌sadh Afraganach, tha a鈥� bhuidheann 脿 Uibhist a鈥� dol air turas chun a鈥� ph脿irce fiadh-bheatha n脿darra ainmeil, am Maasai Mara, far a bheilear an d貌chas sealladh fhaighinn dhen phr矛omh 5 鈥� an ailbhean, an le貌mhann, an buabhall, an liopard, agus an t-sr貌n-adharcach. Ach tha duilghdeasan siubhail a鈥� cur bacadh orra. Air ais aig St. Jerome鈥檚, tha tiodhlac bho na h-eileanan a鈥� toirt toileachas dha deagh sheann charaid, agus tha spiorad Afraga a鈥� tighinn be貌, agus an teaghlach 脿 Ceinia agus 脿 Alba a鈥� d猫anamh g脿irdeachais air l脿 m貌r Gemma agus Shaun.
Award-winning, young humanitarian Gemma Steele has long had a special relationship with Kenya, and built an orphanage, St Jerome's, there in 2014. Having married at home in South Uist at the end of 2018, Gemma and her husband Shaun MacKinnon along with a group of friends and family, make a very special trip in early 2019 for a second wedding celebration with her other family in Kenya.
As well as getting ready for the wedding celebration with her two families, incorporating both the Kenyan and Scottish cultures, it鈥檚 also a chance for Gemma to see how things are going in Kenya, work which is never too far from her mind, no matter where she is.
The group from Uist head off on safari to the world-renowned game reserve, the Maasai Mara, where they hope to see the big five 鈥� the elephant, the lion, the buffalo, the leopard and the rhino. But they are hit with travel problems. A present all the way from the islands makes an old friend of Gemma鈥檚 very happy, and we see the true spirit of Africa as the Kenyan and Scottish families celebrate Gemma and Shaun's big day.
