I am grateful to be part of this community-driven Centre’s heart and message that ‘Everyone Matters!’

Grandview-Woodland and Rising Star Co-op have been my home for the past 33 years, and for the past 15 years I have been meeting with Quirke, the Queer Imaging & Riting Kollective for Elders, at Britannia’s AML Lounge. Through this association with Britannia—and with the support of Anne Cowan, Daniel Cook and Kya Prince, staff at the AML Lounge—I continue to learn more about Britannia’s uniqueness as a community centre, its diversity, its acceptance of all people.

I have been a Britannia board member for the past year and a half; as well I serve on a couple of committees. I am grateful to be part of this community-driven Centre’s heart and message that “Everyone Matters!”
