The Children of Fire Trust and The Dorah Mokoena Charitable Trust have created a Schools' Guide. The trustees of both charities believe that by educating children about disability they lose their fear of it; they become kinder and more thoughtful. They also recognise the tremendous challenge of surviving in a world where the frequent thoughtlessness of designers of day-to-day items makes independence difficult. The children who learn about Dorah and others like her, become tolerant of disfigurement. Of their own accord they start to reassess the way in which any child who is seen as different is frequently ostracised from social and sports activity.
