A $6000 donation from the Mahu Community Trading Post has kicked off AIM’s fundraising to buy a new vehicle.
Warkworth-based AIM (Adults in Motion) provides activities and support for young adults with intellectual disabilities.
AIM manager Sarah Allan says their current Nissan Elgrand minivan can no longer accommodate the growing number of members, nor some types of wheelchairs that the members require.
“One of our members has had an upgrade on his wheelchair, which is great, but it doesn’t fit in our current van,” she says.
