"The Secret Garden"





The day centre is up and running now and some street children come most day's. We have called it "The Secret Garden" because it reminds us of the house in the childrens story.Think you will agree it does? It is looking better every day hard work for Kenneth and Kathryn who are trying to make it like a home as it is the only home these kids have. The room I will show you is sort of the reading room and they get a little education as Kathryn and Kenneth are both school teachers. There is a play room too and showers for them to wash and get a change of clothes. They get hot drinks of coffee, tea or soup and sandwiches as the kitchen is not done yet , we await more funding.I think they have done wonders with the help of many volanteers and all the people who have given money and gifts for the secret garden, many thanks to all of them and a lot of young folk come to help which is lovely to think they spare their time and effort to help these kids. The street kids vary in ages there are small children , babies, teenagers and young adults,all desperatly in need of help and love which we all try to give them. I do try to help in small ways but wish I could do more , but every little helps eh?????
