Serious flooding in Cambodia

The pictures tell the story.  Our P&O School and Clinic in Phnom Penh has suffered badly from flooding.  Despite the best sandbagging efforts of our staff and students, water rose through the floors and every room in the building was under water.

Our people in Cambodia moved as much equipment and furnishings as possible and the floods have subsided, for now, but inevitably there has been damage and mess from a mix of flood and sewage water. International students, who normally live on the site, have had to move out and, for the moment, are staying Exceed staff members.

This couldn’t have happened at a worse time, as Covid 19 has already disrupted our operations and funding streams very seriously and flooding has added to an already difficult situation.

If you can make a donation to help us get back to normal, please give what you can. With your help we can get back to doing what we do best - teaching the P&O clinicians of the future and treating people with disabilities who need our support.

Staff and students work together to save the school’s generator from rising flood waters.
