| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | Our specialists have continued to provide remote assistance through our telemedicine programme to doctors treating children in besieged and remote areas. In March we organised the purchase and distribution of paediatric medical supplies to hospitals in Ukraine. During the same mission we helped to evacuate 54 orphaned children and their carers to the UK. We returned to the region in April and evacuated a further 167 women and children to Poland. The group included many orphaned children, some of whom are now living in the United Kingdom. In October we were asked to help a number of visually impaired children from Zaporizhia and Odesa. We hired vehicles and drivers and brought the children and their families across the border to Moldova and two weeks later we flew them to Germany where they were able to start receiving specialist treatment. |
