In celebration of the International Day of People with Disabilities, the Bermuda Hospitals Board [BHB] held a motorcade yesterday [Dec 3] traveling from the Mid-Atlantic Wellness Institute [MWI], through areas including the City of Hamilton and then traveling back to MWI.
The motorcade stopped at Dame Marjorie Hope Academy, then proceeded to the K Margaret Carter Centre and also stopped at Aging & Disability Services.
According to the United Nations website, “the annual observance of the International Day of Disabled Persons was proclaimed in 1992 by United Nations General Assembly resolution 47/3. It aims to promote the rights and well-being of persons with disabilities in all spheres of society and development, and to increase awareness of the situation of persons with disabilities in every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life.”
