The home may be built but there is still work to complete before it is a safe environment for children to live. The video shows construction workers and volunteers building a retaining wall inside which, a pathway will run from the front door of the home, to the children's playground. The home is built on a hillside, so other areas of land are being terraced to give another fairly level play area. Other work includes a boundary fence, improving safety aspects of an internal stairway and increasing the height of the rooftop safety wall. While this work is being done furnishings and equipment are being sourced and purchased by Himshikhara, our partner NGO, and kitchen units are being installed.
A great piece of news is that the municipality have agreed to build a road to the site of the Children's Home and it is already under construction, (see below). Until now access to the site has been by a very rough track, cleared and widened to accommodate trucks by villagers, during the building of the home.
