Save the Children Week Part 3 (April 28th - May 2nd)

On our last day of recipes to support Save the Children’s ‘Living Below the Line’ challenge, I thought I would provide the link for an advert the charity released earlier this year. This short video takes a year in a young British girl’s life showing how it crumbles from a happy, secure and healthy existence to one affected by civil war. She is placed in the shoes of a Syrian child. It is 3 years since the start of conflict in Syria during which time, according to Save the Children’s figures, over 10,000 children have been killed and 2.3 million refugees created.

Their message is “just because it’s not happening here, doesn’t mean it’s not happening.”
