The UCPA provides 24 hour care to permanent residents and day care
children here at the UCPA. Most of our children are abandoned, so the staff
here is the only family they have ever known. Most of the children are
incontinent and wheelchair bound, they rely on the care workers for their
basic daily needs.
We run a stimulation programme weekdays in the morning, where the
children are stimulated and massaged.
We try and provided a homely environment for these children and strive
to help them reach their full potential.
