IHC Collector

Sharon from Woodend

Just checking it's legit. Had a young guy at the door collecting for IHC. I'm surprised in this day and age of scams, companies would send people out door to door.
I'm a bit wary at this time of year heading for Xmas.

“Giggly girt! Giggly girt!”

“See I got my hair cut on Friday. I've got my hair band to keep it up. See? Like this I keep it up.

Biscuit Blair - she's my favourite woman. And you. And that cheeky lady over there.

My last name is Rule. I'll write it down for you, you silly old duff.
I was born on West Coast. I moved here when I was a little girl.

I like doing pictures here that’s why I like pictures. Doing art. I like going for a walk. I come here Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

My sister, I go see her on Saturday. Have a cup of coffee, at home. She's five, nine. 59. I'm five, seven, 57. This year I'll be 58. My birthday's on a Thursday. I'm having chocolate cake and pizza. And lolly ice cream.
Some people are noisy. Nicholas, and Peter and Chris, they are my friends and that giggly girt over there.

I get headache sometimes at other work, because noisy.

I'm happy here. I could go for a walk if I want to. I'm good.”

- Vanessa, White Room Creative Spaces

The White Room is a community creative space that removes barriers to
making art. Through this, artists build confidence and connections and
embrace new opportunities.
