Projects

Preodoleniye-L

Director: Lydia Ivanova

Website: www.preodolenie-l.ru

This is a rehabilitation centre for children with disabilities, it has been successfully operating since it was founded in 1992. Children and their carers are offered an impressively broad programme of psychological support, inclusive pre-school training, physical & speech therapy, arts, music, drama and therapeutic horseback riding.

Preodoleniye-L believes that keeping a disabled child within the family instead of the system of State care is the best way forward. Their mission is to offer support and encouragement to all their families that choose this alternative and the many programmes that this charity offers aims to develop physical, creative, intellectual and occupational skills in order to facilitate future inclusion into society.
