Belarussian Orphanage Project

Love . Dignity . Integrity . Respect

Text Box: Year round Excursion Programme.
Text Box: All kids love to dress up and perform and some of the years highlights are the regular concerts in which the kids get to dance, sing and perform. We endeavor to supply the Music Therapists with fancy dress costumes and stage make up for all of the kids who attend their classes.
Text Box: Day trips to Mir Castle, to Menka, to Minsk Sea, and night trips to the Ballet, Circus and to the drama theatre are all part of our excursions programme with bus trips and picnics in summer and weekly trips to the city in Winter. We also arrange D.J’s, theatre groups etc.. to visit.
Text Box: With a high volume of kids in each department, the wear and tear on facilities during the winter when the kids are confined indoors necessitates that we renovate, decorate and refurnish our common rooms on a regular basis. Many aspects of the dayrooms are changed including T.V’s and Videos.
Text Box: Seeking sponsorship outside of Belarus, we invest in Belarussian Art and Paintings for the corridors, bedrooms and dayrooms of Novinki. This creates a stimulating environment and we also host art exhibitions where the kids can display their own creations as part of our Art Therapy Programme.
Text Box: With some of the best Teachers and Therapists employed in Novinki, BOP strives to provide them with the most up to date educational equipment and goods available. We also transport specialist goods to Belarus for individual children who require educational aids for their conditions.

BOP ensures a fresh supply of Yoghurts, Bananas and other high vitamin foodstuffs for all of the kids, especially those who are confined to bed and work closely with the medical team to meet their needs.

Novinki Orphanage has been the focus of our work since our foundation and we have completed many projects that directly benefit those in our care. Here are some of our current projects...

Text Box: This programme is one of our most successful, aimed at the stimulation of our most high-dependency babies and children. Full time music therapists works with groups of 5 in a specially designed and stocked Therapy Centre making ‘Creative Noise”!!
Text Box: Whatever the physical needs of the kids in Novinki, BOP has a special fund from which Operations, treatments and special equipment can be purchased. Everyday medications, creams and items required by the medical team are also provided as well as additional hospital staff.
Text Box: Every Child deserves to celebrate their birthday and no less so if they are orphaned and institutionalised. Our birthday programme guarantees a great day for every child with their gifts, games, foods and party for them and their pals. 217+ kids get to celebrate thanks to sponsors.
Text Box: Continuing our policy of developing the territory of the Orphanage, we are creating a pathway, specially adapted for wheelchairs, along the border of the orphanage in the format of an adventure trail with pools, seats and it will be fully landscaped.
Text Box: Prior to and after traveling to external hospitals for treatment and surgeries, our kids spend a period of time in this specially constructed 7 roomed infirmary with a full 24 hour medical team in attendance.
