Run by John and Lorna Norgrove, the owners of Timsgarry Byre, the Linda Norgrove Foundation (LNF) continues the work of their daughter who worked in development in Peru, Laos, and then Afghanistan. In 2010, she was kidnapped by the Taliban and was killed in a botched rescue attempt by US special forces.

• In fifteen years we have sent almost 4.5 million pounds to Afghanistan.
• Currently, we fund approximately 30 projects a year in Afghanistan that help women and children, with a focus on education and training, medical projects, and humanitarian aid.
• We also support 18 female Afghan students to study medicine in Scotland. All former LNF Scholarship Students, who were banned from their medical studies in Afghanistan part way through their course.

The income from Timsgarry Byre is donated to LNF where it offsets the overhead costs. We do this so that we can tell potential donors that every pound they donate gets to Afghanistan and, hopefully, lever further money to support women and children who live in one of the poorest and most repressive countries in the world.
