Living with Chernobyl


OVER the last few months we have worked with the publishing company ‘Ticktock Media’ to produce a book about the life of 17 year old Ira Rozhkova, who we first met at Zhuravichi Children’s Home when she was just nine.

The book tells Ira’s moving story – some of it in her own words and some told by her teachers and carers – interwoven with information about the Chernobyl accident and its health and environmental effects. It also describes some of the activities of CCP(UK) and other charities and suggests ways in which readers might give their support.

It is primarily aimed at school children of 10 – 13 years, and we hope that all our groups will help to promote it in their local schools. But it makes a good read for anyone who is interested in getting a better picture of life in Belarus in the wake of Chernobyl.

The book should be available in bookshops at £5.99, but we will have copies at a reduced price. Our groups will be promoting the book in their local schools, and other charities could do the same. Let the office or your local group co-ordinator know if you would like a copy.
