“There are many talented children whose skills only disappear in the cold. The innovation center makes it possible for their skills to be seen.”

— Noel, Multi-Skill Technician

Skills training sessions (3 days)£90

The crisis isn’t talent. It’s transport.
£5 is often all that stands between an innovator and their training.

William’s Story — and What Came Next

You just heard the beginning. Here’s where it led.

2001

A 14-year-old builds a windmill

Using scrap metal, bicycle parts, and a library book, William Kamkwamba built a working windmill to bring electricity to his family’s home. Everyone thought he was crazy — until it worked.

2007

The world sees the story

His TED talk spread across the globe. Millions watched a young Malawian tell his story in a language he’d only just learned — and the world listened.

2019

The next generation begins

Moving Windmills opens its first Community Hub. Not to celebrate one story, but to create the conditions for many more.

NOW

5 hubs and growing

Common Questions

How is this connected to William?

William's story sparked the Moving Windmills Project. The Current carries that same spirit forward — funding the next generation of young innovators like Flossy through our Community Hubs.

Will I hear how my gift is used?

Yes. Monthly partners receive regular updates from the hubs, including stories and progress from the apprentices your gift supports directly.

What happens if I cancel?

Nothing but goodwill. You can cancel your monthly gift at any time from your DonorBox account with no penalty and no questions asked.

Why monthly giving?

Predictable monthly support lets our hubs plan ahead — covering transport, materials, and mentorship consistently, rather than reacting one donation at a time.

The Multiplier, Every Month

One becomes ten. Ten becomes one hundred.

Your £20 a month keeps that chain running — funding one community member's training, every single month, for as long as you stay in The Current.

Not ready for monthly? still helps — and it's still matched.
