Stories about our work

Ukrainian children learn trauma recovery techniques from our in-country colleagues at Helping Hand for Ukraine.
Our key activities are training and research, through which we deliver and develop psychological support for children who are traumatised by wars and other disasters worldwide. This is how we make our impact.
We support our activities entirely through the funds raised by our supporters and events.
In this section you can read the latest stories from all of these activities.
