Once a year the Solent group
of the charity Friends of Chernobyl's
Children (FOCC) play host to about 12 children in July. Over
3 Thursday evenings the SSCC runs a racing tournament for the
children. This is very popular and we've been doing it every
year since 2003. 26th of April 1986 reactor number 4 exploded
in Chernobyl. The wind blew the radiation over Belarus were these
children where born and now live. The country won't really be
safe to live in for another 24 thousand years. A month out of
that environment is great for the childrens health. |

and Guardians |
