A STUDENT from Beaconsfield, who raised more than �1,000 for the tsunami fund, is travelling to Sri Lanka to help rebuild a village destroyed in the disaster.

Melissa Brandon, 20, of Grove Road, and her friend Jessica Bloomfield, 21, from Somerset, have given up their summer holidays to work for the charity in charge of helping to rebuild the small fishing village of Ambalangoda, near the city of Galle.

Melissa said: 'I am really looking forward to it seeing where the money we raised has gone.

'We will be doing all sorts of things like helping rebuild and helping out in the orphanage.'"
