Welcome to the Bonsall Link web site for the Chernobyl Children’s Life Line. The Bonsall Link was formed in December 2002. Since Victor Mizzi M.B.E. founded the charity in 1992 over 150 "Links" have been established throughout the United Kingdom, raising money to support the children of Belarus, whose lives will be forever affected by the aftermath of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986.   Please use the search facilities on the right hand side of this page to find the link nearest you and get in touch with them. They will be pleased to hear from you, and happy to help.

Our work in Bonsall Link is focused on three core activities:

Raising the funds to bring over 10-20 children here each year for four weeks of fresh air, uncontaminated food, fun, love and attention as well as dental and eye check ups.

Providing a basic income (when there is no state support) so that needy families can buy clean food.

Funding respite camps in Belarus for the children (and their families) who are too ill to travel. These facilities also have specialist medical resources and nursing.

Imagine: Living the rest of your life in a radioactive polluted environment. There is no escape. Money cannot buy protection.

Imagine: Eating food that may harm you, but what else can you do?

Imagine: Coming to the UK and eating fresh food and breathing fresh air and going home with your imune system recharged.

Imagine: Knowing that people DO care.
