Volunteers will step in as wheelchair cleaning helpers, exploring the ins and outs of electric wheelchairs while learning essential cleaning and maintenance techniques. By connecting with users, you will gain insight into the daily challenges wheelchair users face. Together with the 1st Step Association, let’s work towards creating a more inclusive and accessible community!
To promote inclusivity and mutual support among wheelchair users, Kerry Group sponsored the 1st Step Association's "Community Support Network for Wheelchair Users and Their Caregivers 2.0", where wheelchair users select their district leaders to build support networks through communication and gatherings. The Group also sponsored the "Smart Home Improvement" program, identifying obstacles for wheelchair users and installing smart devices to enhance their autonomy and dignity at home.
