Danny Sawday is now 34 years old. His parents Mandy the day. “I can see a state of contentment in his face that and Rony knew something was not right with him, was rarely visible in the past” said Mandy when at 10 months he seemed to stop developing. “His “I cant thank JewishCare enough, because vocabulary just never progressed like it did with Danny’s without Terri’s help we never would have engaged elder brother Adam. When the family went to Israel, a with Eilen and Debbie. JewishCare has helped few old aunties said don’t worry he will be fine but we us financially with Chai Foundation funding plus were worried.“ said Mandy. Terri has always been there for me like my private Mandy took Danny to many doctors and centres and counsellor. She is just so empathic and proactive. they tried to encourage his speech but when Danny was I am lost for words what a difference JewishCare around 2½ years old multiple doctors diagnosed him has made to our lives” said Mandy. with Autism, intellectual delay and a probability of never being able to talk. At the time this diagnosis was not as common as it is today and there were fewer facilities and resources available. Danny was taken to numerous schools and the family tried everything possible but in Mandy’s words “the battle really started when he was 18 years old and finished school. Finding a suitable place for him to go was just so difficult. He remained non-verbal and continued to exhibit challenging and self-injurious behaviour that were impossible to predict and we never knew how long each episode would last. This dominated our lives. “Danny seemed so frustrated it was breaking our hearts” said Mandy. JewishCare has been an important part of the family’s life for decades but the last 3 years have been a revelation. With the help of Terri Jackson, a JewishCare disability Caseworker, Danny has made remarkable progress. This has resulted from his engagement with Eilen, a gym teacher who specialises in helping people with a disability and Debbie an amazing speech therapist. The combination of these two therapies has changed so many aspects of Danny’s life. “Danny just loves his gym sessions, I can tell his state of mind from his face and during these classes he is so calm even when doing really hard exercises. He responds so well to Eilen and is becoming so fit. His rapport with Debbie is equally incredible, he is really stimulated by her classes and his communication skills have leapt ahead and he is now able and willing to follow multiple commands and he engages with great enthusiasm” said Mandy. Unlike some people with Autism, Danny has always been very loving towards his family and especially Mandy but now although he still exhibits some challenging behaviours they don’t last as long and he just seems less frustrated and more affectionate than he previously was. Importantly this happier state continues through most of

The result has been that his once active and independent “Our community is very fortunate to have JewishCare.

He now requires said Ernie. assistance to get out of bed in the morning, to dress and to be put back into bed every night, plus to perform a whole range of daily living tasks. This situation has imposed substantial change on the whole family but especially on Jessie his wife of 62 years. Despite these challenges Ernie’s spirit has never waned and in the words of his daughter-in-law Robyn he remains ‘a force of nature’. More recently he had a major health crisis requiring an extended hospitalisation and a far from optimistic prognosis, but he prevailed and attended his grand-daughter’s wedding and is now back home. For many years another provider was providing home support services to Ernie but the family was not happy with certain administrative aspects of the service and they contacted JewishCare. “That was a great decision. JewishCare who now provide my Level IV package have really made such a positive impact on my life. The workers are very professional and caring and the improvement has not only been of benefit to me but importantly it has also helped Jessie to lead a more normal life” said Ernie. Ensuring consistent high quality care is of critical importance. JewishCare Case Worker Yuliya Resnikov said “we have over 70 dedicated staff who go out to people’s homes. We treat every person as an individual. We put a lot of effort into ensuring we achieve the right match which is for the benefit of both the worker and the person they are helping.

With no job and no established expat community for We have been blessed” said Miriam. support, times were extremely challenging and he contacted the Family Services team at JewishCare. The team was able to help him in a number of ways including assistance to enrol at university and to access housing as well as providing financial help. Most critically JewishCare’s Companies that Care (CTC) program, the program which links job seekers with companies whose owners offer jobs to fellow community members, helped Isaac to find a job at Toymate which is a company owned by Danny Bloom. This came about via Merle Klug who has had a long and successful career in recruitment and who volunteers with CTC program. 3 years ago, Isaac’s financial situation had improved sufficiently for him to ask Miriam to join him. Miriam too, had a very difficult time in the period after she arrived. She had to re-qualify to continue working in pathology and was feeling very lonely. She persisted and passed all the required exams, but then she could not find a job. She became more depressed with every knock back she got. “Nothing was working, said Miriam “I didn’t know what to do, I was desperate, then for the second time, Merle came to our rescue”. This time Merle contacted her friend, Lynne Seskin who works for a pathology company. Lynne said “On meeting Miriam I felt such a strong bond. My husband and I also came from Africa, but in our case South Africa, so we had the opportunity to join an established community including relatives, school and family friends and other acquaintances. Miriam and Isaac had nothing but their indomitable will to succeed. They are both lovely warm people and fellow Jews from a completely different background. Fortunately I was in a position to help Miriam to get a job“. When a suitable position became available in the company she worked for, Lynne proposed Miriam. This landed Miriam that lucky break she needed and since then she has impressed everyone and has already been
