KIND families are being called upon to host 11 to 13-year-olds from Mogilev, Belarus, during the summer who still suffer from the after-effects of the Chernobyl disaster of 1986.
Organisers have found a short stay in the UK can boost the youngsters’ immune systems and extend their life expectancy by two years.
A full programme of events is in place to help working families.
The children are accompanied by their own teacher and speak English.
Call Burtonwood Link Chernobyl Children’s Lifeline chairman Colin Frodsham for details on 221614.
