Achievements


Over the years the Women's Wing has been able to achieve the following success:
1. Vocational training in employable skills for women's wing. The organization can now boast of women with knowledge in Batik, tie and dye with the plan of coming together to produce for the market.
2. Health education: There were workshops on STDs, HIV/AIDs and the use of Contraceptives (Family Planning) and also on Disability Policies.
3. We have also succeeded in sending one of our members to undergo an operation on the legs.
4. Education: Because the best legacy to give to a person is education we have worked in connection with the district assembly who has given us scholarship to enable our members get free education to the tertiary level through the government of Ghana Common Fund and now one of our members had a scholarship and she is in her second year in a Secondary School.
5. We have being attending seminars, workshops and leadership training.


Challenges


Despite the above achievements there are also challenges faced by the organization.
1. Lack of funds to settle members who have learnt vocational skills.
2. Lack of transportation to attend outreach programmes and mobilise more members.
3. Lack of Office Equipments.
4. Lack of education: This is the main problem due to the fact that most parents of disables think disability is inability and out of ignorance deprive most of our members from enjoying basic education which is a fundamental human right.
5. There is also the problem of discrimination against women with physical disability in terms of marriage.
6. Lack of accessibility is another problem in our society in terms of education, health, religion, social amenities etc since the buildings are not structured to favour the WWPD.
7. Lack of NGOs in the Western Region to help achieve the stated goals and objectives of the organization.
8. Lack of sporting equipments like sporting wheel chairs helmets, table and lawn tennis equipments, basketball equipments, elbow crutches etc to enhance sporting activities which is very important to the physically challenged to be fit and strong always.
Since we are in a computer age and for that matter a global village it is the hope that every member, especially the youth in the organization would have computer training (knowledge) to fit into this society of modernization.
