Celebrating our Volunteers

Anu is a vibrant volunteer whose journey intertwines seamlessly with the essence of. Her story began with an unexpected twist of fate—an encounter in the hallway while waiting for a ride home. In that fleeting moment, she found not just a friend, but a lifelong companion who introduced her to the barrier-free committee at Vibrant. Since that serendipitous day in 2013, Anu has been an integral part of the Vibrant community, embodying the belief that the most profound connections often arise when least expected.

One standout memory for Anu from her time at Vibrant is the setup of a photo booth during a community BBQ event hosted by Vibrant. Alongside her fellow volunteers, they immersed themselves in the joy of crafting superhero costumes, igniting laughter and camaraderie. Yet, beyond these moments of levity and community participation, Anu reflects on the profound impact of Vibrant as a "One-stop shop" for healthcare and social support. She recalls with gratitude a challenging time when her doctor went above and beyond, checking in daily to ensure her well-being. At the heart of Vibrant lies a commitment to community involvement, epitomized by initiatives like Jane's Walk, which advocates for accessibility in public spaces. Though progress may have been gradual, the ripple effect of their endeavours ultimately unites the community in a collective journey toward inclusivity.

Anu's story highlights the true essence of Vibrant—not merely as a Healthcare Centre, but as a community focused on connection, support, and empowerment. It is a place where every individual finds belonging, where shared experiences weave a tapestry of unity and purpose.

"Vibrant feels like a second home; once you're there, it's hard to stay too far!"
