Support Vernon Derby To Support The People


Satisfying Year Helping Others

Last year was another year that I was able to use my time and talent to assist others. In helping others I found out that I was helping myself also. I have my own problems but when I see the other problems others are facing I gave thanks my small ones. I used the social pages, radio and other media to help many who are having challenges. Sometimes I wonder how much more I could have achieved if I had funding and the support of more persons. One supporter has suggested that I set up a Foundation which could assist to cover the cost of helping others.

Over 5000 Emails and Text Messages Last Year

In 2015, approximately 5000 text messages, emails, and numerous calls were dealt with in helping others. The messages kept coming even during the Christmas holidays.

Organizations Benefited

Many organizations worked with me to deal with some dificult challenges that they were facing. I also assisted them in achieving some of their objectives.

Lady Prevented From Committing Suicide

There are numerous others things that I have been able to deal with such as assisting to organize persons to get their roads fixed, getting broken NWC mains fixed, getting street lights replaced and making contact with MPs to have them give us information about the challenges in their constituencies.

One lady told me that because of something that I highighted,, she had her busband check with the doctor and that action probably saved his life. I can't forget that lady who text me and told me that she was feeling depressed and that she was about to commit suicide. With the help of the police and persons from Bellview that suicide was prevented.

Helping Workers

I have been able to assist workers who were having challenges with management and I believe that my intervention helped to prevent unrest at these work places.

Bullying

There are the sad stories of for example, the child who was constantly being bullied at school and his problems being ignored by the teachers and administration at the school. I worked hard to get him transfered to another school and he is now doing better.

The Influence Is Growing

One person said to me that she threated a business man that she was going to report a matter to me and the business man had the matter resolved immediately.

We really need to have a powerful organization which can stand up and defend citizens and consumers. My supporters have suggested that now is the time that form that organization. Your help and support will be needed.

I also felt honoured when I was asked by Cabinet Office to act as a Judge for the Public Sector Customer Service Competition last year.

I Need Your Continued Support

You can give your support by inviting at least twenty of your friends to like my PAGE and also to join my group of supporters by clicking on SUPPORTERS.

All the best for 2016. I love you all. Walk Gook.
