In early march activists of “Our House” addressed an issue of high edges at apedestrian crossing to the regional executive committee. The pointed out problematic spot was located on the Bogdanovich street opposite the block of flats #33 and #46.

A month later our activists noted some building works happening around the reported area. The caught on camera outcomes can be observed in the following photo:

The edges are lowered, so now young parents with baby prams, people with disabilities, and elderly people have a safer, easier and more inclusive space when they cross the street. We thank “Slutsk Communal Services” for such a prompt response to the “Our House” request!

Another example of timely reaction is repair of a sewage well hatch on Kopyl’skaia str. that was executed shortly after a call from Tamara Blinova, one of the leaders of “Our House”.
