We were able to walk around the community in Hilaga between the feeding and the small group.
We saw how some of the people of the community lived when we visited the home of one of our volunteers, she had a small room (less than 2m square) with an open window. To get to it you needed to walk (carefully) down an unlit damp passage made by the cramped homes of her neighbours.
But, there has been a significant change in parts of the community since the last time I was there, a group of the people living there were able with the help of a Catholic church to build a new block of flats into which they then moved, during the construction that took two years they lived outside the building site in temporary dwellings.
It was wonderful to see some of the people of the community living in much better quality housing.
