​

We are a non-political organisation, run solely by volunteers in the UK. Like so many, we are appalled at the senseless loss of life and suffering of people in Israel and Gaza and we condemn in the strongest terms all violence against civilians on both sides.

We hope and pray for a speedy peaceful situation to be found. Meanwhile, ordinary people, including children and the elderly, are particularly vulnerable. Citizens in Gaza are already impoverished and the lack of electricity, water and medication can only make things much worse.

When this dreadful conflict is over we will continue to build playgrounds which will be needed more than ever to support children who will have seen and experienced trauma beyond our imaginings. But for now we ask that you support established charities who can help Palestinians with food, water and medicine. These include, but are not limited to:

Palestine Children's Relief Fund PCRF
Middle Eastern Children's Alliance Middle East Children's Alliance – Meca for Peace
Amos Trust Palestine Justice (amostrust.org)
United Palestinian Appeal United Palestinian Appeal – Transforming lives, empowering communities since 1978 (upaconnect.org) l
British Red Cross  https://donate.redcross.org.uk/appeal/emergencies-fund

Together, we can but try to make a difference.

The opening day at our new playground in Silwan

The Maada Creative Centre is a community centre in the Jerusalem neighbourhood of Silwan. They aim to create a safe, supportive and nurturing environment for children and we are proud to have funded their recent playground. 

The playground we built at Aheba el Tefel in Gaza

We have not yet heard whether the people who live here are safe.

The area where we are building a playground, in Burin

Burin, in the West Bank, has a partially completed playground and PfPUK has sent the funds to complete it. The money was sent just before the recent conflict and we sincerely hope that the playground, which is being imported from Turkey, is allowed safe passage by the Israeli government.
