The ‘Smiling Walker’ is Lacing Up His Shoes to Give the Gift of a Lifelong Smile“Every day, innocent children endure abuse, neglect, poverty, and unstable home environments – experiences that leave lasting marks. These early wounds often show up as behavioural struggles or academic challenges. Without support, the weight of trauma can grow heavier over time, affecting mental health and limiting a child’s ability to thrive in school and in life.” the organisation shares, on its website.
“We ensure each child feels seen, heard, loved, and supported. Our therapists and teachers collaborate with families, sharing the responsibility for each child’s well-being.”
