Delivering papers is more than a job for Wallara’s clients.
The Dandenong-based service for adults with disabilities has been running newspaper rounds in Keysborough and Endeavour Hills for several years.
Each week support coach Kayla Tulloch takes out a crew of up to nine people to put about 150 copies of the Journal News into letterboxes.
“They love it,” she said.
“A lot of the time a lot of people come out the front as well, so they like the interaction with the people.
“They talk for ages so you’ve got to help them along.
“You spend up to three hours on the newspaper run just because these guys like to talk!
“They like the exercise as well.”
Disability support coach Boney Joe Abraham leads another crew around Keysborough with the Dandenong Journal.
