Creativity, connection and support close at hand.

In Mykolaiv Oblast, activities supporting local residents continue in the village of Novoivanivka and the city of Bashtanka, with the support of Medico International and the Peaceful Heaven of Kharkiv Charitable Foundation.

In Novoivanivka, a creative workshop brought together 12 participants. Surrounded by paints, brushes and friendly conversations, they had an opportunity to take a break from their daily worries and spend time in a calm and welcoming atmosphere.

Each participant created their own tote bag design, choosing colours and patterns that reflected their mood and personal preferences. There were no right or wrong choices — just an opportunity to express themselves through creativity.

At the same time, a social worker provided individual consultations, helping residents address current social issues, access relevant information and understand where to seek further support.

In Bashtanka, two individual consultations were also provided to local residents.
