(^) Charity of the week
Based in Stratford, East London, Agents of Change have
been working since 1991 with the most deprived people
in the county of Botosani in northeast Romania. We
focus on those of all ages suffering with mental health
problems and physical disabilities who have no access
to health services. Many of them remain in the institutions to which they
were abandoned during the Ceaușescu era.
Our outreach programmes enable people to improve the quality of their
lives. Our experienced team of Romanian staff are now using their expertise
to respond to the needs of refugees with disabilities crossing the Ukrainian
border 19 miles from our community house. Visit agentsofchange.co.uk for
more on our work.
Fill in all the squares so that
each row, column and each
