Public Service Pensioners Stand Up And Be Counted by Vivien A. Vanterpool B.PHIL. DAES. DES.

During the years of the Anguilla Revolution, Teachers in particular bore the brunt of the burden, ensuring that they stayed - that is, the majority of them - endured the hardships, the uncertainties, not knowing whether the move would be successful or not. We had one belief in the God of Heaven, our patriotism or love for the Rock, that the Revolution would, by God’s help, be successful. Anguilla’s future was our main priority; the meagre salaries which we received in those days were of secondary importance; our charge, that is, our pupils’ and students’ future, meant more than anything else to us.
