ACCESS ACTION! AWARDS 2007
The City of Nedlands Access Action! Awards are designed to:
- raise awareness of the importance of creating an accessible and inclusive community and
- recognise the efforts of those who are taking steps to "make a difference" for people with disabilities, their families, carers and friends.
A Poem by J. Lee Miller copyright 2007
You know those roles
That you think are great?
And the people from whom
Great info you take? |
If located in
Or benefits those
Within Nedlands City
Take time to suppose... |
And what about
The organisations
That bring some life
And warm sensations? |
What it would mean to them
That you took the time
To recognise their efforts
And their acts that are kind |
In particular
All of the above
That treat our disabled
With all sorts of love |
Consider also that others
Will benefit as well
Award nominations
Are a great way to tell... |
An individual
Or perhaps a course
Or disabled riding
On a friendly horse |
That something exists
That might really help
Fellow friends and the neighbours
With the cards they've been dealt
|
Access to buildings
Or access to knowledge
Support for learning
Or access to college |
So look around
Be our eyes and ears
And contact the council
With your great ideas! |
Of these, and more
We'd like to hear
Let them, and us
Know that you care |
P.S.
Please nominate...
And recognise
Those who deserve
An Access prize |
