Latest News

In August the house next door to the Children's Refuge house became available for rent. This was a great opportunity to expand the Refuge which could not be ignored. As a result, a certain Sunday morning in September saw a ramshackle group of young lads lugging beds and wardrobes and tables and chairs and all manner of things backward and forward between two houses in a quiet backstreet of Solo city. We bashed a hole in the wall between the two houses (and put a door in) to allow direct access. So now the boys have a whole house to themselves and the girls have the old house all to themselves. The total capacity of the Refuge has been increased to approximately 30 children and more importantly we now have double the number of toilets than we had before.
