Welcome to the Burren Chernobyl Project |
|
|
The Burren Chernobyl Project (BCP) was established in 1993 to help with the child victims of the fallout from the Chernobyl reactor explosion. Many projects have been carried out to assist the children and their families who are enduring the effects of exposure to radiation and the other social and economic problems facing them in Belarus.
If now and then you send a good word and a good thought in this direction, if you remember what you have seen, if you long to visit us again, then we will have achieved much." |
