Since 2013 the Holy Land Institute for the Deaf (HLID) has run a centre for children with disabilities in the Za’atari refugee camp on the Syrian – Jordan border. Children with disabilities become some of the most vulnerable people in the camp. Since work commenced at the centre more than 3,000 children, together with young and elderly people with hearing, visual or mental disabilities, have received help. Each day, 75 children come into the centre to receive help with hearing devices, therapy, education and even just support and friendship from HLID staff and the centre’s 14 volunteers.
