Building the UK side of the bridge

Give from the UK through At the Bridge

At the Bridge — English for Tek Ura — is our UK sister charity, now a registered charity in England & Wales (no. 1218711).

A £100 gift becomes £125 for families in Albania.

Grief and gladness, side by side

Children playing together at a Tek Ura summer camp in Albania

This summer was heavy for our Durrës family — a tragedy weeks before camp meant grief was close to the surface for many. And yet over two hundred of us came together anyway: children, grandparents, wheelchair users, people with learning disabilities, our Albanian team, and UK volunteers who gave up a week of their summer. For some families it was their only holiday all year. For some children, it was the first time they had ever been in a swimming pool.

"How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity!"

PSALM 133:1

"I didn't expect to cry watching kids in a swimming pool. But I did."
