"My ACCESS involvement allows me to use my competences; analysing, empathising, and organising events" Roy Lie-A-Tjam

"My interest in multicultural issues is one reason I began volunteering with ACCESS. The organisation shows how a diverse workforce can work successfully and effectively" Christine Fischer
