workshop

1. Production of Equipment
Daniel and his co-workers work 3-4 days a week to produce the equipment in  Timion’s  carpentry workshop in Jeffreys Bay. The equipment is ordered by therapists that work in hospitals and clinics in Nelson Mandela Bay and other parts of the Eastern Cape.  Previously we have been directly involved in the CP clinics, but issuing the equipment at the clinics was not ideal, as the parents were struggling to get the equipment to their houses.

2. Homevisits
We visit the children with disabilities and their families to fit and issue the equipment ordered. The caregiver is taught why and how to use the equipment correctly. We also pray with the child and caregivers and document the prayer requests of the family. These requests are relayed to the people who «adopted» the child and have committed to regularly pray for that family. We recently employed a counsellor who daily visits families and encourages and prays with the mothers.




3. Camps
 Usually twice a year, we organize a camp for mothers and their children with disabilities. They are invited and brought to Jeffreys Bay for a few days.
We aim to encourage the mothers, to take them and their children out of their daily routine and difficulties, for them to have fun and build friendships with other mothers, and to show them how much they are loved by God. 

4. Prayer adoption
It is our goal to find a prayer partner for every child that we are working with. Please consider to adopt a child and their family and commit yourself to pray regularly for them. We compose a prayer card for every child to give guidelines for prayer.

5. Outreach with other NGO
Daniel sometimes participates in outreaches with "Malamulele Onwards".  The outreaches are taking place in rural hospitals in the wildcoast or Limpopo. Around 30 children with CP are treated by specially trained therapists, all of them volunteers, for one week. The mothers are taught in better handling of the children. They also receive the needed equipment which is produced by Timion and other organisations and companies.
In February 2011, Anika and Daniel have travelled to India to work with a partner organisation "Anugrah" and train their staff in producing equipment for children with CP and to teach their therapists about seating and the appropriate use of the equipment. As we see a similar need in many countries, we realize that our equipment can be very useful regardless of the place. Probably there will be more times where we can share our experience, and we are open for it.
6. Equipment for sale
we receive more and more orders from private patients that have the means to pay for the equipment. We also produce equipment for clinics or schools. This gives us some income towards the project. Please check under products, what equipment is available. There is also a price list to download.
