We are delighted that the latest Flame playground project, in conjunction with Habitat for Humanity, is now complete and open!

The pictures tell the story of a highly successful project, welcomed with grateful thanks by both civic and spiritual leaders of the town - see the generous letter received from the Mayor here.

Our intention is to continue with these projects as needs become apparent - do contact us to be kept up to date - and you might wish to donate to these future projects: details below.

Our hearfelt thanks to all who joined with us in supporting this most recent project - each one makes such a difference to the lives of local children and their families.

Previous playground projects

In 2020, the first playground project appeal enabled a playground to be built in Sighet at a home that looks after the needs of children with disabilities. In 2022, another facility was created in the town of Comanesti to meet a similar situation of challenged children in a kindergarten that had been deprived of support and excluded from local investment. Then in 2023, a third project was completed for Valea Seaca School in Pascani which didn't have any playground or outside facilities.
