Famos has been disabled since he was a baby. Unable to walk or talk, he needs a lot of extra care from his mum. Diana found out about ATE from her aunt and as the sole carer of her 5 year old, was thrilled when we quickly enrolled her in our inclusion programme and visited them at home.
Famos needs a wheelchair & advocacy to get him into school, Diana looks forward to emotional support and a community of carers who understand how hard it can be. We'll make this all happen, quickly and with so much kindness.
Life can be tough in Upper West Ghana – and for disabled children and their carers it can be brutal. But we're reaching new families every single month, bringing disabled children into the light.
Brilliant work Ladies.🎉✌️
What a lovely story

Famos is such a wonderful and sweet boy 💝💝. Who has the desire to go to school
