IMPACT SENIORS BUS TRIP

By -
On Wednesday, the 25th November, we the volunteer workers took our seniors from the Impact Ministries Club and the people from the community whose feet we do, on a bus trip. We hired two double Decker buses from Inter Cape. Those buses were a great help with our moms and dads, especially those who are on medication. there were about 110 seniors and the workers were about 15. we left the centre about 9.30 and our first stop was in Sea Point where we had breakfast. From there we went on to Maiden's Cove, where we stayed and had lunch.

The weather was nice and warm, but a bit overcast. Everybody was so laid back and relaxed, just enjoying the moment of not being at home and having to care for their grand kids and the housework.

There was lots of fun and laughter going on. After everything was done, the eating, fun and laughter, we started packing up and headed back back to the Impact Centre.

At the centre, we gave each senior a gift to take home. They were quite made up with everything that took place that day

Hi all, I am Salma Richards,a parent with 3 adult children. I am told I am a chatterbox,empathetic and determined{just a bit slower}. My interests are reading,gardening,home crafts and the outdoors.It took an accident that happened 16 years ago to make me realize that the choices we make will determine the quality of life we will lead.It was, and is a long, hard road to get to where I am today. Imagine,having to learn to write,walk,remember,eat,cook,dress and just about everything we teach a toddler to do, well it took me 16 long,trying and very difficult years to become the person I am today! I have now realized it's my Creators mercy at giving me a real second chance at life .I now try not to offend  people and also to be more tolerant because my family and friends had the patience to guide and teach me simple things that you would take for granted.Thank you once again to RLabs facilitators and all who in the past and present taught,helped and guided me.MWAH.
