Total per year £240
"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

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

William's story became a movement. Flossy, Noel, Gloria, and others are writing the next chapters. Will you write one with them?
