Project overview
This project in the Batticaloa District of Sri Lanka will set up 5 satellite centres for children and young people with disabilities in areas where there has been no facilities of this kind since the Tsunami. A profoundly disabled unit will also be set up to support disabled children through therapies such as massage, music, touch, smell and sight therapy. Integrated playschemes will also be introduced so disabled children and those who aren't can play together and interact, helping to break down barriers.
