The group wanted to give persons with disabilities an opportunity to experience the sea. Many never get this chance because it's not physically accessible, and it goes against a general perception that persons with disabilities shouldn't be undertaking such pursuits. Well, People Support People is busting that myth. Not only is this event about bringing together able-bodied people and people with disabilities to learn from and support each other, it's about showing the community of people with disabilities that they can be empowered and break through their own limitations. One of the most valuable lessons we learnt on this trip is that disability is not about someone's physical limitations. It's about the environment. If we work to make it accessible, persons with disabilities have an equal chance of succeeding in everything that able-bodied people do. Underwater and out of their wheelchairs, these persons with disabilities are free. They can't walk but they can dive because, in the water, we're all the same. The Marine Discovery Dive 2016 is open to volunteers (those who dive and those who don't) and persons with disabilities from around the world. Training is provided.

A close brush with cancer led Jason to start Recycle Your Hair, a project that gives people the opportunity to donate their hair towards a wig that is given free-of-charge to people who are bald because of illness. Wigs made of human hair are more comfortable than synthetic wigs. They also look more natural and last longer. But they are expensive, sometimes costing upwards of $1000. This is unaffordable for many people, especially when they're also dealing with medical expenses that can sometimes be debilitating. In five years, Jason has received more than 500 hair donations and made nearly 30 wigs. Rachel, who features in the video, had extremely long hair and an entire wig could be made from her donated hair, but it usually takes multiple hair donations to make a single wig. Jason works with a local wigmaker - one of the remaining few in Singapore - who makes the wigs at a reduced cost of $180. He then partners organisations like the Breast Cancer Foundation which offer the wigs to women who go to them for help. Sometimes, hair donors will also sponsor the cost of making a wig. Many times, Jason pays. Where he's struggled the most is finding volunteers to help behind the scenes, arranging hair collections and deliveries, as well as physically sorting and cataloguing hair donations.

Those who volunteer with the non-profit Dover Park Hospice (DPH) come face to face with this question on a regular basis. Sounds grim, but would you believe that it’s not? The volunteers provide music, massage services, food and playdates with pets for the residents to enjoy. They spread happiness with a smile, a song, a touch. It doesn’t take much, and yet it means a lot to the residents, judging by their responses. Their focus is on helping the residents to live as fully as they can, in the time they have left.

And it is precisely that pleasure that captures the essence of Cycling Without Age. The movement started in Denmark in 2012 and has since expanded to more than 20 countries. It began with one man's desire to bring the joy of cycling to people who'd lost the ability because of age. In doing so, Ole Kassow created a space for something much deeper. Not only did the rides foster a connection between the young and old, they gave the elderly a chance to revisit and remember the places they once knew, to share stories about the past and to see how life had changed. Singapore is now home to Cycling Without Age's first Asian branch, and it's ripe with opportunity for the so-called pioneer generation to share about what life was like before Singapore's rapid - and unceasing - transformation went into full force. So here's a chance to be a positive force in your community, to dedicate some time to the elderly, to show them they are valued, and in return, you get to experience your city in a different way. And feel the wind in your hair.

Being more vulnerable to the virus, all seniors have been advised against leaving their homes, as part of Singapore’s “‘circuit breaker” measures to slow the virus’ spread. To address this, an online community called SilverGood was formed, where volunteers host weekly activity sessions — from music to cooking — designed to enrich the lives of elderly. In doing so, they have also created an inclusive and supportive community for everyone. ____________ Find out more: Read the full story: www.ourbetterworld.org/series/humankind/story/silvergood-activities-elderly ____________ Director & Editor: Anshul Tiwari Producer & Writer: Chris Annadorai Executive Producer: Sharon Pereira https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b6868cee2ccd1c37d7eb83d/1533570228126-JQ8TXS9TD8I9KJ4BWJC8/image-asset.jpeg Impact Shorts - No More Child Sexual Abuse Nusrat knows what a creepy touch means. She has known it for a very very long time, ever since she was molested by a man five times her age, when she was 12 years old. This event, horrific as it is, shaped her life, brought it to a point where she came on the verge of a breakdown, before someone pulled her out of the dark waters and said, “Now you must never let that happen to any child.“ Nusrat started a mission to arm children against sexual predators in India.

SDI is a social enterprise aiming to tackle language, physical and professional barriers through access to affordable education, vocational skills and activities for social inclusion. From learning to start a business venture, to acquiring language skills for career advancement, SDI’s work transforms lives of low-wage migrant workers — among them Alom Mia, who lost his livelihood after sustaining an injury in Singapore, but has found an enterprising way forward thanks to SDI. ____________ Find out more: https://www.sdi-academy.org/ Read the full story: https://www.ourbetterworld.org/story/... ____________ Director, Camera & Editor: Anshul Tiwari Writer: Anita Zee Executive Producer: Chris Annadorai https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b6868cee2ccd1c37d7eb83d/1768161895115-ZGWY4NCFHGDUDOTF16U2/image-asset.png Impact Shorts - Breaking The Silence on Child Sexual Abuse Nusrat knows what a creepy touch means.

It is also home to a series of schools started by a handful of determined individuals who were committed to educating a generation of tribal children who had never heard the word "school". One man from Singapore, Alvin Yong, chanced upon this town 7 years ago, during his "journey through the soul of India". Inspired by the schools and its unique teaching methods, Alvin tapped into his own education and created a solution to solve the problem of electricity shortage in the area. Seven years later, Alvin goes back to Ghatsilla to reconnect with old friends and to find out just how far his solution went to change the tribal schools. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b6868cee2ccd1c37d7eb83d/1533906920094-GXQK8QJDJEICYFK4BZ4A/Rosario+photo.jpg Impact Shorts - Rosario The story of Dennis Rosario - a street musician in Singapore.

After being caught and condemned to death by the patrician of the great city of Ankh-Morpork, Moist was offered the chance of a new life, with one condition: to reopen the city's defunct Post Office. In desperation to remain out of the grave, he employs all his criminal skills and, through a series of schemes and an alliance with the mysterious Adora Belle Dearheart, sees the Post Office triumph over the murderous Reacher Guilt and his coven of financiers. A true icon of English literature, "Going Postal" dances on the boundary line between comedic satire and fantasy with great panache. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b6868cee2ccd1c37d7eb83d/1590723360966-LB6I8BB9TT6ESX5STNMP/BB_poster_sep2019_%5Btitle+and+credits%5D+%281%29.png Cinema - Bin Bulaaye | MAMI Winner 2019 | Ira Dubey | Royal Stag Barrel Select Large Short Films Amidst break up and loss, a young woman finds unexpected beauty when she stumbles upon her father’s subterranean life as a poet.
