“Through our committee, we continue to work towards a solution – and I think there is one out there. We need to ensure that people are treated with dignity.”

“I find all my work on the Anti-Poverty Committee inspiring and fulfilling, but a particularly fond memory is of our “Snakes and Ladders” game which highlights the vicious cycle that is life on welfare; no matter what one does, one does not have sufficient income at the end of the month. It garnered a great deal of interest (when we presented it to a wider audience) – people were really drawn to it.

Through our committee, we continue to work towards a solution – and I think there is one out there. We need to ensure that people are treated with dignity.”
