Wheels Away
board
Three residents of Brussels
recently joined the Wheels Away
board of directors. Bev Brown,

vice development for seniors and
physically disabled adults, Mar
guerite Thomas and Rev. Cam

al meeting held in Wingham United

the township's representative.
Wheels Away provides trans
portation for the disabled and frail
elderly. It is a non-profit organiza
tion run by a board of directors . A
nominal fee is paid by the client
with subsidizing from municipali
ties which which an agreement has
been made.
The nine-month old service
which operates within an area
including Brussels, Blyth, Wing
ham, Teeswater and Lucknow, and
the townships of West Wawanosh
East Wawanosh, Morris, Grey,
Howick, Tumberry, Kinloss and
Culross, ended 1991 with a deficit
of more than $2,000. Though there
is subsidy money from the Ontario
Ministry of Transportation, the
board hopes for continued support
from the individuals and organiza
tions in the community, in addition
to more support from councils. Five
of the 11 municipalities served
have entered into an agreement
with the board, although Tumberry,
with the majority of clients, seven
private and 75 nursing home resi
dents has said no.
