Astra Centre bids farewell to Merle Furman

Selwyn and Merle Furman with their daughter Heidi, granddaughter Keira, son Mark and daughter-in-law Lucy

A breakfast for the committee, staff and workers was held at Coffee Time to honour Merle Furman and bid her farewell. Under her leadership, workers were given the opportunity to enjoy meaningful lives based on their reality.

At the same time structures were created to reinforce this positive approach and destigmatise disability. The success of Astra continues to be a role model for both local and international organisations.
