Lahela and Noah - Bring them home.

BRING THEM HOME.

This page has been set up and maintained by a few of Sally's friends, to raise funds for the ongoing legal fees and battle to bring Lahela and Noah home to Australia. 

No parent should ever have to live through what Sally is currently living through, and no child should be denied access to a capable and loving parent.

Everyday is a living nightmare.  

My name is Sally Faulkner and I am a left behind parent in Australia. 

In May 2015, my ex husband took our children Noah and Lahela (ages 2 & 4 at the time) on a trip to Lebanon, with the intention and promise of returning them three weeks later. The day he arrived he told me that the children would never return to Australia. He promised everyone here including my family and our four year old daughter that they would be coming home again.

I’ve tirelessly fought for help but I’m now at breaking point.

The Australian government has done nothing. It’s ridiculous - Australia is one of only a few countries where parental child abduction isn't "criminalised", so the government isn't helping. I’m desperate to hear Lahela’s voice, to hold Noah’s precious hands - to tell them both mummy loves and misses them terribly.

Ali leaves the children now full time with his mother who is about seventy and who doesn't speak much English as he goes to work in Beirut two and a half hours away from where the children stay. 

Lahela and Noah are much loved children, very missed and were well cared for in Australia. It's been a long and agonising 92 weeks since they have been gone.

Since Ali has taken the children out of Australia he has refused any type of communication and ignored all attempts from my side to organise any form of contact with the children.

Sally.
