Barkerville Trips

We actually went to Barkerville, BC twice, utilizing both HandyDART and an early version of Northern Health Connections. Many of the people in the photographs are memorable, and we honour those who have passed away. We hope this offends nobody. If you can help identify the unnamed persons in the images, please get in touch with us at 250-563-1852 or hcrspg@gmail.com to help with our history project!

Changing the future of BC transit

Handy Circle supported a group of people who became the foundation of today's accessible transit in the province of British Columbia.
