Mothers from TLMI


November 28, 2017

Our mothers and their children have come to The Sreepur Village from all parts of Bangladesh and to help bring them here, we have a team of social workers who specialise in rehabilitation and whom travel around the country getting referrals from different government and non-governmental sources.

TLMI, The Leprosy Mission International, works as the most significant referral organisation for us. Presently, we have over 15 mothers, who have been referred to us from there.

Earlier in the week, a team from TLMI, Rangpur, (a northern district of Bangladesh) came here with four mothers. When our current mothers saw the officials of their ex-organisation, they became very happy and were eager to take a photo with them.
