Summary edit

Description

The roof of the village hall in Tolosahay was also ripped off by Typhoon Haiyan, but now it's got a temporary replacement in the form of a tarpaulin supplied by UK aid and the NGO Plan. This means the hall can now be used again as a 'child friendly space' for the village children to have play and song sessions.

"The typhoon caused children much emotional stress and many still feel frightened and insecure", says Nestor, a Plan volunteer who helps run the sessions.

"We can help them cope with the trauma by using songs and games, and by having a place where we can encourage them to talk about their experience.

"Their classrooms were all destroyed here so the tarpaulin means we now have a Child Friendly Space in Tolosahay."
