Visit to Africa – November 2021

Audax Visit to Africa

Our owner and MD, Adam Liardet has been back in Africa this month, again visiting Oltiyani village in the Amboseli National Park in Kenya, where Audax sponsors a school. Living in and around the Kenyan parks are the pastoral Maasi communities. Sharing, living and co-existing alongside the wildlife, these nomadic cattle herders travel with the seasons, following the grazing / water. In the Kenyan heat, finding water whilst protecting and caring for their livestock are daily challenges that take up all hours of the day. Understandably, formal schooling and education aren’t high on the list of priorities for some, and the constant daily battles in life isn’t exactly conducive to the school calendar as we know it.

The Village Audax support want to protect their Heritage, traditions and way of life, but the people of Oltiyani Village also want to provide their children with the opportunity to enjoy an education that will open up more potential opportunities for their futures.

We’re proud to be able to provide valuable resources for children attending the school such as pens and pencils, as well as much needed funds.

We’re also proud to provide logistical support and assistance to Little Dresses for Africa – Belgium & France. 60kgs of handmade and upcycled clothes were provided to the children in Baraka Homes Orphanage in Kayole Soweto, Nairobi.

Founded in 2006, Baraka is home to 289 children, all from a range of backgrounds. Some children were orphaned by HIV/AIDS, some were abandoned, others abused, lost and found, along with other heartbreaking stories. The children’s ages range from less than a year old, to adulthood. Baraka gives these children a home, as well as essential support and safety, giving them all another chance in life.

The children’s home in Kenya does not have wealthy sponsors; instead, they are reliant on the good hearts of supporters and sponsors, such as LDFA. Through kind and generous donations, such as handmade clothing and toys, they are able to provide these children who would otherwise go without.

We hope through these donations we are able to help improve the lives of those living in Kenya.

Audax are proud to be confirmed as a silver sponsor at the BAPCO: The Online Event, 2-4th March 2021

Speaking of the company’s sponsorship, Managing Director Adam Liardet said: “Audax is delighted to be a silver sponsor of BAPCO 2021: The Online Event. British APCO is a key event in our calendar as the customer and partner interaction it provides directly supports our commitment to innovation and British manufacturing.

“With Spring approaching and the successful rollout of vaccines offering an imminent exit from the enforced ‘hibernation’ we have all been subjected to, we believe that BAPCO: The Online Event will offer the perfect platform for the sharing of information and experiences gathered over the past few months. These experiences are critical in the development and cultivation of ideas in the often fast- moving sector of public safety.”

While Audax will be physically exhibiting at the Annual Conference and Exhibition later this year (12th and 13th October), BAPCO: The Online Event will provide a focus point for those within the public safety to gather and share points of view. It is only by working together that the industry will be able to respond to this ever-changing environment and the unique challenges faced by the public safety community.

Audax® body worn cameras have been used by emergency service and security professionals across the globe from our first industry pioneering days in 2005. The new Audax® Bio-AX® camera has been designed and built with the core customer base at its heart and was launched in late Autumn 2020.  Bio-AX® can be remotely commanded to record and live stream video and audio, along with GPS location, from the control room.  This not only provides managers visibility and situational awareness of their assets on the ground, but it ensures complete oversight for compliance and professional standards. That’s why Bio-AX® is a valuable tool to ensure safety, security and professionalism.
