Founder Sue Hanna speaking to one of our clients
“Cambodia got more and more under my skin every time I went, to the point that in 2004 I took some annual leave, went to Cambodia and decided I was going to find a Sue-shaped hole, because I knew there was something I could do there which was linked into those moments I had when I was travelling on my OE,” Sue said.
Sue’s passion has always been to stand alongside the poor and disadvantaged, who have been written off by their own communities, and to help them.
We are celebrating gender equality with a new initiative for at risk women in three of the Flame communities. We will create a safe space where women can support and encourage each other, learn about female and reproductive health and strategies on how to keep themselves and their children safe.
