The Committee would like to thank Minister Sacramento and the Ministry of Equality for hosting an evening reception to honor the present and past committee members on the 50th Anniversary of the Society. For it to coincide with International Day for People with Disbilities was particuarly pertinent. Over the past fifty years the Society has be instrumental in bringing to Gibraltar inclusive education, a social security allowance for disabled persons, respite for families in need, a year round service at St Bernadettes Resource Centre and supported independent living within the community. We continue to lobby towards the introduction of legislation to protect the rights of disabled persons in Gibraltar and the promotion of sustainable supported employment. The Society would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those from the public and private sector who have supported and continue to support recerus over the years.
