Testimonials
I have a grandson who has a disability and uses a wheelchair. His old wheelchair was in very poor condition, and it was extremely difficult to push or pull. Many times, I had to carry him on my back to move around.
One day, Mr. Joe, noticed my struggle and connected me with Yiadom Disability and Mental Health Support. Through their help, I received a brand-new wheelchair for my grandson.
I am deeply grateful to Yiadom Disability and Mental Health Support and to Mr. Joseph Antwi for this life-changing support.”
Grandma
“I am Esther’s mother. I struggled every day with her mobility. As Esther grew heavier, it became almost impossible for me to carry her. I was introduced to Yiadom Disability and Mental Health Support, and through their help, Esther now has a brand-new wheelchair. I no longer have to carry her to school, and this has made a huge difference in our lives. We are truly grateful.”
