The Gilly Mundy Memorial Community School is located near Lehrian in rural Haryana, India.

It is named in honour of Gilly Mundy, whose wedding in December 2005 to Debbie Quargnolo in the nearby village of Buwan Kothi was the catalyst for the foundation of a charity, the Buwan Kothi International Trust (BKIT), set up to raise funds for projects in Haryana aimed at rural regeneration and building closer ties with rural communities in the state.

Since Gilly's sudden death in March 2007, aged only 36, BKIT has raised over £130,000 towards the cost of building the school and working in partnership with our local non-profit partner, BKIT (India), to help it develop and grow.

George Hardwick travelled out to Haryana in December 2008 for a short visit to the Gilly Mundy Memorial Community School and returned in October 2009, this time to teach at the school and help with the development of its pupils.

George's trip is the first of what the Buwan Kothi International Trust, the UK-based charity that raises funds for the school, hopes will be many from supporters in Britain.

This is the diary of his journey.
