The true healing power of the hundreds of teddies that are knitted for Ocean Stars Trust by our supporters is incredible to witness. These are normally transported to Sri Lanka as part of our luggage allowance in large sports bags.

 

When the team arrived at Kilakanoli, the children were a little unsettled and tearful. But once the teddies had been handed out, the instant change in their demeanour was magical. The tears vanished and they all cuddled their teddies. The joy and happiness the children felt was palpable.
