This week on The Main Event we are with Hatice Salih Kerimgil.

We talk about her life , her previous work as a school teacher here in the TRNC, and the support and help she gives towards many charities and associations , including The Anglo Turkish Association.

This Saturday the 21st December, is the start of Martyrs National Struggle Week and the 25th December is the 63rd anniversary of the foundation of BRTK.

We talk about the significance of these events and their importance to the struggle of the Turkish Cypriot people .

This Saturday at 5pm and repeated on Sunday at 11 am … only on Bayrak International Radio 105 and 87.8 FM

Don’t miss it Xxx

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.
