“I used to work in handicrafts before the birth of my second child, Moyna. My daughter was born severely disabled and I had no choice but to give up my job and look after her because there was no other way our family could provide her with the appropriate care. Life was difficult before Children’s Hope helped us. I was very down as I could not contribute money towards my families needs, and I was dependent on my husband’s low wages as a driver. I was even unable to spend quality time with my son. The respite care provided by Children’s Hope has renewed my life, allowing me to get back into work and be independent again.  Moyna is now 4 years old and thriving with the extra help and care provided. “ Nazma Begum

Looking after her disabled son and ill husband was taking a toll on Amena. Discovering the Children’s Hope Respite Centre helped to take some of the weight off.

Being a care giver is a full-time job, but as a single mother, Sanjita’s mum had to juggle care giving and a full-time job on her own. The Children’s Hope Respite Centre was there to lend them a helping hand.
