Happy to help

The home accommodates 19 residents from the ages of 18 to 55.

Antoinette Muswera, who is a social worker at the home, said their charity shop helps raise funds as the home is dependent on donations.

“We also need people who can come in at least twice a week to do exercises with the residents,” said Muswera.

“We also welcome volunteers who wish to spend time with the residents as some of them don’t have families that visit them.”

Muswera added that most families abandon people with a disability, forgetting that they are also human beings who need to be treated with love, respect and patience.
