“As I grow older, I try to keep myself active by going out on morning walks and doing stretching exercises. When I heard the Purple Parade was coming up, my friends and I at AWWA Senior Activity Centre decided to take part together to stay healthy. This is my first time taking part in the parade and I am very happy to have been a part of this! It was a very fun walk as I got to chit chat with my friends and the volunteers took great care of us during the march. I think it is very meaningful to walk alongside people with special needs, hear their stories and make friends with them. Regardless of age, I believe everyone can do a part in promoting an inclusive society. If I can do it, so can you!”
