My final event here at Sabah Cheshire Home, Sandakan is
called the “WalkWheelAthon”. This event
is to help raise funds for the ‘Home’ and create awareness to the Sandakan
community about people with disabilities, especially those who use wheelchairs.
The event takes place on the 15th of July at the
local Sports Complex. We plan to have
people team off into groups of 10 persons and each group will have one
wheelchair. There will be several
different exchange stops, so that each person within the group has a chance to utilize
the wheelchair. The distance from the
start to the finish is about 700 meters. We
decided to not make this a competition, but something fun and educational.
I look forward to yet another great event, benefiting a
great cause!
