Description
Our local partners, the NGO, SAUCE, operate from their Madrid base where they work towards the objective of establishing social assistance projects which are run by the Apostolic Prefecture of Battambang, whose prefect since April 2000 has been Monsignor Enrique Figaredo.
The school has been in operation since January 2015 and activities are run at two sports centres, both of which have tarmac football pitches and boast four coaches each. The first of the schools is based in Campo de la Paloma. This school benefits 59 participants who have a physical disability (amputees caused by the landmines and or those afflicted by polio). Training session are laid on three times a week.
The second sports facilities is located at pitches in the parish of Tahen, when Monsignor Enrique Figaredo serves as priest and this centre caters for 100 attendees.
