Hands of Hope (IOM)

    • Working with the vulnerable & disadvantaged in NE Romania

      Hands of Hope seek to help the vulnerable and disadvantaged of NE Romania by working in the community through one to one education, befriending of families, distribution of aid and practical help.

    • Covid 19 & Our Community Centre

      Our Community Centre at Cobila is normally a bustling hub of activity with children's work in groups, one to one tuition as well as families using showers and the washing machine. However in the present lockdown circumstances this has changed.

       

      We have tried to provide activities for the children to do in their own home and we have arranged a rota for the washing machine and water which keeps to the social distancing rules.

       

      We are in daily contact with the families and try to make sure their urgent needs are met. Easter in Romania is a week later than the UK so at this time we are providing extra food and essential supplies.

      Cobila Village

      Built on land purchased by the charity, we have several house supporting 8 families and many children
