- Persons with Learning Disabilities participating in mainstream international sports event.
- We all did the minimum 26km walk within 9 hours to get the medals and certificates.
- It was the longest sports event we ever participated in. We surely got lots of experience on how to prepare next time. We were all tired by the 20th km but we all didn't give up and kept on walking 6km more! It was 5am we decided not to push ourselves any further, we all collapsed on the floor and just slept! It certainly was a unique experience and a great achievement for our youth with learning disabilities- completing 26 kms, something that most of us may never be able to achieve in our lives. And what a relief for Fendi, our support staff, he managed to preserve his ego and dignity by not doing less than 26 kms !!!!! (Fendi did 30km instead)

The Victory picture with our medals. We have done the minimum 26km walk and our body was so tired, hungry and sleepy.

Julie Wong, our veteran sports woman and volunteer managed to complete 55 km!!! great achievement and Congratulations Julie !! and Many Thanks for raising some funds to support our work at Dignity & Services.

Thanks to Mr & Mrs Lim who have helped us achieve this.

The group members made up a list of items they needed for the new house. We drew a plan of the new house and showed them the lay out of the house. A few group members made a visit to the house to test out the accessibility before the renovation work commenced. The group members participated in collecting cardboard boxes, sewing curtains and clearing one of the rooms to start preparing for the move.
