Wales!!!!

So the new group we shall be supporting with our Chernob blankets is in....WALES!

Our first Welsh group and we are thrilled. The group is based in Mid Glamorgan and we are particularly delighted to be reaching these children as they are all from an orphanage and all have additional needs. You'll see why we are so chuffed to be supporting them.

Sooooo (with the extra children added in to another group too) our revised target is 160!

160!!

Thank you everyone for making this happen! 🎉🎉🎉🎉💪 xxx

wow - 160 !!!!

For some reason that's made me a bit emotional. That's great news.

Us too Okki xx

Five years ago TODAY our Chernobyl project started with 12 blankets for our group of teens visiting Leeds with the Chernobyl Children’s Project Charity!

What a journey it's been since then. Thank you so much everyone!

12... those were the days 😂😂

we were still panicking back then
