Story
We need better solar energy during the winter months.
Forever Savvy offers vocational training and assistance to adults facing learning disabilities, striving to enhance the quality of their lives. Our goal is to empower individuals with learning disabilities by providing outdoor education centres and a café environment, fostering their initial steps towards employment. Through community projects involving animal care, agricultural activities, and our own Tea & Coffee Shop, we create a secure space where people can acquire new life and work skills, achieving a harmonious emotional and physical balance.
Our eco-friendly initiative, Horse Savvy, relies on solar power for lights and electrical sockets. Regrettably, our current system falls short, especially during winter, necessitating replacement to offer improved lighting in stables, offices, and the canteen area, enhancing the learning experience for our trainees.

8 months agoThe final picture! I don't get nose bleeds, it just doesn't happen to me...apparently if you punch my nose enough it does! :-) Ha ha - what a great experience getting punched repeatedly and remaining standing until the end, success in my book. Last few days to sponsor me before it closes down. Thank you everyone, and yes, it was worth it :-)

As a personal challenge I am participating in a White Collar Boxing Match scheduled for March 16, 2024. This endeavour is also an integral part of my pursuit of 6th Dan Jujitsu, and involves 8 weeks of training, alongside 50 other enthusiastic novice boxers.
