It's all about the children
There are many reasons why a child may not reach his or her potential. There could be difficulties in the family, the school or in the community. Their parents may be beset by difficulties, their neighbourhoods could be deprived of facilities, their schooling may be disrupted.
At CCRS we believe in the right of every child to live a full existence and experience the richness of life. We are particularly concerned to reach out to the marginalised and isolated. So how do we do this?
