We are a UK charity based in Dorset linked to the 3 Churches of Canford Magna Parish; St Barnabas Church Bearwood, The Lantern Church Merley and Canford Parish Church.
We have been involved in missions to Romania since 2007 with the sole purpose of providing help and encouragement to disadvantaged and impoverished Roma communities and people in Romania.
We have been involved in missions to Romania since 2007 with the sole purpose of providing help and encouragement to disadvantaged and impoverished Roma communities and people in Romania.
Our work so far has primarily consisted of sending teams of people to help build new homes or to enlarge existing dwellings and to help in the local schools teaching English, We have also volunteered at Summer camps and given humanitarian aid in the form of clothing, medicine, shoes, school uniform and books and financial aid in the form of family support, we are commited to encouraging and assisting the Roma gypsy families and children and ultimately to make a difference to their lives.
With the help of long established Charitable foundations already working in Romania we have gone a long way to achieving our ultimate goals.......to create purpose, belonging and security to the Roma communities we have been assisting.
So as our Mission To Romania continues we would like to extend a friendly hello and welcome to both new and old faces, Christian and non-Christian, experienced and non-experienced..... people who would like to make a difference to the lives of Roma families living in 3rd world conditions in a 21st Century European Country.
