Reaching out for Ptolemy Reid Rehabilitation Centre

Dec 07, 2012 Letters

 

 

Dear Editor,
The year 2012 marks the 45th Anniversary of the Ptolemy Reid Rehabilitation Centre (PRRC), having been established in January, 1967. PRRC, with its vision of ensuring that persons with disabilities have equal opportunities and choices as other citizens to participate fully in our society, has throughout the years provided unselfish service to many children from all walks of life, bringing joy and hope to their lives.
Drawing to a close its year of activities, PRRC concludes with an “Evening of Celebration & Appreciation” to be held at the Georgetown Club on Friday, 7th December, 2012 at 6.30pm. The evening provides an opportunity for Management, staff, young adults and former residents/students of the Centre to join in celebration of 45 years in operation.
Long-serving and dedicated members of staff, as well as former residents/students who have benefited from the services of the Centre and are today leading productive, independent lives will be recognized on this evening.
Additionally, in lieu of its usual concert or Christmas Carnival, this event also functions as the Centre’s observance of International Day of Persons with Disabilities (2012 theme: Removing barriers to create an inclusive and accessible society for all).Accomplishing 45 years of meaningful service would be impossible were it not also for the many generous individuals/organisations who have supported the Centre over the years. For this reason, PRRC chooses also to honour those individuals and organisations on this night, where through interaction with staff and clients of the Centre, they may witness firsthand the positive outcomes of their contributions and the difference they make in the lives of others.
Without the combined effort of PRRC’s dedicated staff and generous sponsors, such an auspicious milestone could not have been reached. To help make it truly successful, PRRC is kindly requesting the assistance of your media house in the coverage of this event.
Hyacinth G. Massay
Rehabilitation Officer
