Consequently dozens of disabled children and their families particularly in surrounding villages and some of the most needy, were unable to attend the centre thereby having no association, special massages and learning, plus their parent(s) have no respite from daily care. Children also cannot be conveyed for treatment or to enter competitions etc.

Please support us in any way you can
