Following the accident in the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station in April 1986, most of the country of Belarus is contaminated with radioactive elements

The Mid Surrey Link is part of a national charity called the "Chernobyl Children Life Line". We bring groups of children from Belarus to the Ashtead/Epsom/Leatherhead area in Surrey, providing them with a four-week respite from the aftereffects of that accident.

This website shows you what we have done with groups of children in previous years, and explains how you could help. Please see the section below for further information.

Since the inception of the Mid Surrey Link we have hosted a total of 115 children in seven summer visits and four Christmas visits. Additionally, some of our hosts have invited children back for private repeat visits at other times of year.

For Christmas 2008 we invited 2 children and a teenager from the Stolin district in the south west of Belarus for a 3-week visit over Christmas. You can see photos of their visit by following the link to our contents page under "further information" below.
