Karakum Special Needs School sensory room update

It’s done! The room has been cleared, refurbished, ceiling strengthened for hand ladders and soft toys to swing on, kitted out with all the relevant furnishings to make troubled children calm. Last item to hang curtains will be completed in the next few days.

 

The items all came from Türkiye and inevitably there were issues with transport, customs duty, tax and anything else that could be a problem but thanks in particular to our chairman, Levent Ozerdaǧ and his contacts who minimised the impact of these potential hindrances.

 

The teachers are really pleased with the outcome, and a plaque will be hung outside the room stating it has been completed due to donations from the ATA.

 

Pictures show the room and three of the resident teachers along with Levent Ozerdaǧ and Tim Morgan.

 

We will look at another project with this school during 2025.
