Special Needs

BibleLands and its Project Partners seek to provide education and specialist training to children and young people who are blind, deaf or who have other major physical or intellectual disabilities.

 
BibleLands recognises that, without special attention and support, it is often the weak and the disabled – those with special needs – who are left at 'the bottom of the pile' and most neglected.

BibleLands continues, therefore, to support a number of projects that cater for those with disability.
