Mind Over Matter

Mind Over Matter was established in 2007 by Celestine Smith, Joseph Apollis, Esmeralda Lewis, and Irene Kroukamp as a support group for people with intellectual disabilities.
Although Celestine, Joseph, Esmeralda, and Irene are no longer involved with the organisation, their groundwork in establishing the initiative remains invaluable.
Over the years, the service has expanded to include people with physical disabilities.
