Pointing out blindness can be
a very isolating experience the
provincial president of the

Canadian Council of the Blind.

(CCB) says the formation of a
new club in Terrace could do
much to end that for visually
impaired,

Stan Bradshaw — he has been

registered blind since the early
*50s — was in Terrace last week
to present a CCB charter confir-
ming the local White Cane club
as a full member of the
organization. The charter was
accepted on behalf of the club
by president Felix Goyette.
' Describing the CCB as ‘‘the
voice of the organized blind,”
Bradshaw said the public, in-
cluding the blind themselves,
were not always aware of its
purpose and function,

Apart from lobbying provin-
cial and federal governments on

issues effecting the visually.im- ,

Clinic seeks life
saving donations
Organizers of the Red Cross blood donor clinic to be held
here Wednesday, July 1] hope local residents will come out in
force and help them reach this year’s target of 550 pints..

That's a big jump on last year when 452 pints were col-
lected, ‘but clinic chairman Kay Parker — she’s from the
’ K’Ettes, the sponsoring organization — is confident it can be
achieved. In 1988 the clinic took in 548 units.

Parker said-35 local volunteers would be on hand to assist
-Red Cross workers with.the clinic, a good number of whom
would be registered nurses from Mills Memorial.

That involvement also includes having several nurses join
other volunteers on a special float the organizers are building
to promote the elinic, K’Ette Kathy Hicks said the float will
be touring the downtown area on Saturday, July 7 from

’ Ip.m. to3 p.m. Those aboard would be more than happy to
answer any questions the public had, she added.

Parker said there’s good news for anyone who faced the
frustration of long line-ups during the clinic’s busy periods
last year. She had been assured by the Red Cross im-
provements to the system meant there should be no repeat of —

The clinic takes place from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Skeena
Jr, Secondary school gymnasium. Parker said more
volunteers were always welcome and anyone wishing to help
out could phone her at 635-2520 after 6 p.m. or Kathy Hicks

Requesting the exemption, CCSR president George Mc-
Cultough pointed out it could neither absorb the $3,200 an-
nual cost nor could it raise rents to cover the charges — Cana-
dian Mortgage and Housing Corporation regulations restrict
the amount of rent hikes.

The charges also translated to $15 per month per tenant
and that was a lot of money to tenants on limited incomes, he °
added.

Council has deferred a decision until it can determine
whether the Municipat Act allows an exemption.
