A new adaptive sports club for veterans and people with disabilities has opened in Myronivka, Kyiv region, providing a dedicated space for rehabilitation. The first training session on the new sports equipment has already taken place, with veteran Yaroslav Gulenko among the participants. He shared his own experience of rehabilitation through sport:<\/p>\n

\u201cSport is the best method of adaptation and rehabilitation for veterans. When you train, your focus shifts entirely to your body \u2014 memories and difficult thoughts about the war fade away. Physical activity replaces negativity, easing aggression and bringing a sense of relief. This rehabilitation club is truly needed, especially with such excellent equipment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before the war, Yaroslav Gulenko had worked at the Myronivsky Plant of Manufacturing Feeds and Groats since 2016, serving as the master of the waste briquetting line until the full-scale invasion. On 4 April 2022, he stood up to defend his country. In August 2023, after returning home due to injury, Yaroslav underwent treatment and rehabilitation. With the support of the MHP Standing Together program, the veteran was offered a new position, as his previous duties had become difficult to perform due to the injuries he sustained in the war. He was invited to become a sports specialist, as Yaroslav is an avid athlete and a member of the MPMFG football team.<\/p>\n

Dmytro Zhukotansky, First Deputy Mayor of Myronivka, expressed deep gratitude to Ukraine\u2019s defenders and emphasized the importance of supporting active-duty military personnel and veterans.<\/p>\n

“I am infinitely grateful to our defenders who risk their lives for our victory and security. We continue to support the military and have allocated 114 million hryvnias from the city council budget for 2024. Recognizing the needs of veterans, we aim to create comfortable conditions for their rehabilitation and reintegration.\u201d<\/p>\n
