4Life and CCD, Thailand supporting abandoned disabled children
Following a six month stay in Thailand, and winning ‘Who Wants to be a Millionaire’, Lydia George gave all her winnings to set-up 4Life, together with James and Esther Treasure.
RAINBOW HOUSE CHILDREN'S HOME
4Life has built their own children’s home called Rainbow House and a number of children from government orphan homes have now been completely released into 4Life's care. In this new home the children learn many necessary life skills that will enable them to be integrated back into society.
DAY CARE CENTRES
4Life has opened three day-care centres within orphan homes. Here, with the love and encouragement of staff and volunteers, the children can learn basic skills such as walking, talking, feeding themselves and playing.
SCHOOL FOR DISABLED CHILDREN AND ORPHANS
4Life run their own school where children from orphan homes are allowed to come for the day.
COMMUNITY BASED REHABILITATION
Community Based Rehabilitation is where families in rural areas are encouraged to keep their children at home. Parents are taught the skills necessary for looking after a disabled child and given on-going support.
