Summary
ofthe main
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year
This has been an exceptional
and very difficult year for the charity for a
number ofreasons.
Most ofthe difficulties
relate to the pandemic
which fora time saw the
government
regulations
forcing our children's
carers to stay in the
residential
unit for 2weeks at a time.
We have a very small space there anyway
and carers had to take over
one ofthe rooms normally
occupied
by our children,
who were very
cramped as a result.
At this time the whole country was under martial
law, some ofthe villages
were completely
closed and it meant that our community
work had to be
severely curtailed.
In the mean time in UK we were also very restricted
in
the fund raising events we could mount,
but despite this we have
managed
to keep going thanks to some very generous
donors.
The dedication
and skill ofthe Romanian
carers cannot be
overemphasised.
Noreen O'Gorman
who normally
oversees operations
in Romania was trapped
in the UK and could not travel back but the staff
coped magnificently
and Noreen was able to continue to give advice from
the UK. Despite the pandemic
which was quite bad in Slobozia, our
children were protected
and cared for.
Our aim has always been to facilitate the care ofthese severely disabled
children
by Romanian
carers and because ofthe pandemic
they have
shown that this is now a reality.
As the country begins to open up we hope to resume our community
activities
visiting families
with sick and disabled
children and young adults
in their own homes and supporting
their family who care for them.
Noreen's
Kids is now beginning
to resume the kind offund raising
activities which have made this work possible.
We have plans to install extra storage space for equipment
and an
improved
play area and we have successfully
applied for a grant from the
Toy Trust.
