As part of its commitment to promote inclusion and participation of persons with disability, Agenzija Sapport recently hosted in conjunction with the support of CO-OP transport services its annual summer barbecue for it service users and employees at SmartCity Malta.

The event was presided by the Parliamentary Secretary for Rights of Persons with Disability and Active Ageing, Dr Justyne Caruana and attended by Agenzija Sapport, CEO, Mauro Farrugia and Services managers, Adreana Sammut, Kristin Baldacchino and Elaine Galea.

As in previous years the event was highly entertaining with music provided by some of Malta's most talented performers, musicians and singers including Clayton Pace, X-Tend, id-Dulli, Andre' Curmi and Jessica Magro.

The summer barbecue is today an integral part of the Agency's calendar of events which consists of various activities held in different venues throughout the year.
