summer project 2017
TEECH will be travelling to the village of Sturzeni, Northern Moldova in August to challenge a team of volunteers to another school project. The team will create bathrooms for the boys and girls in an empty room within the school. At present there are not indoor toilets or washing facilities, therefore everything needs to be created from scratch.
Thank you to all the donators and sponosrs for the 2017 project, especially those generous enough to donate supplies for free.
Thanks to Tynemouth United for donating football kit which we can pass onto the children in Moldova, so they can get out and play team sports.
Please see our sponsors page for further details

who are teech
TEECH was established in 1998 when a group of people who worked together at BT near Ipswich, Suffolk took up the challenge from a colleague to help repair two hospitals in Bucharest.
About fifty volunteers traveled to Bucharest under the banner of ‘BTL Aid to Romania’ in August that year and set about painting, plastering, providing lighting and generally making the hospitals cleaner, safer and brighter places. After the success of this trip, and seeing the need to be more structured the volunteers organised themselves into a Registered Charity and hence TEECH (Telecoms Eastern European Challenge) was born retaining the "telecom" connection in its name.
Although BT continue to provide assistance with transport TEECH is a small independent charity, run by an unpaid team of six people, which welcomes volunteers from all walks life.

our aim
Our vision is to improve the lives of those in Eastern Europe, who by no fault of their own are living in conditions not seen in Western Europe since before the war.
TEECH aim to improve their lives by installing sanitary ware into schools, orphanages and elderly residences where no indoor toilets exist. The charity also delivers aid, including clothing, toys and shoes to the local communities.
