Story
Over 10 years ago Tim and Sarah's daughter, and Cara's Twin Sister Hayley moved into Jubilee Court to help her have as much of an independent life as possible despite all of her medical and disability needs.
Jubilee place great emphasis on personal choice and developing social, communication and life skills so that people with autism can lead a fulfilling and enjoyable life.”
It has certainly done and continues to do this for Hayley and her friends who live there. So when they told us they were struggling to book their local Hydrotherapy pool and it was upsetting the residents that they could not go as much as they wanted to. Sarah rallied around her family and a couple of long standing and very close friends and said "Right this is the last one we are doing but we need another channel relay".
In true form we can now confirm we are off again week commencing 29th June 2024. (Weather permitting)
The aim to raise as much money as possible to help the residents use the sensory bathroom with Hydro bath whenever they need to and help them find the calming and relaxing benefits that water, music and lights can bring to these young people.
Please help us by donating and sharing this post as much as possible over the coming months to help raise awareness of Autism and help these young people extend their independence and social wellbeing as soon as possib

6 months agoWe’ve only gone and done it. 13 hours 9 minutes. We hit dry land at 1130pm last night and we are waking this morning finding all the war wounds, and there are quite a few. Not least for some of us stomach issues from 15 hours of vomiting, dehydration from salt water. Friction burn, muscle and physical injuries and more. Donations will close Monday next week so it’s not too late to help. Well done to all of the team everyone stepping up to adversity when pushed. Some people came so far out of their comfort zones we could not be more proud.
