Story
Hi ,
PLEASE READ THIS !!!
For all of you and all of you that don't know ! I have a 13 year old son , Joseph , who is Autistic with learning difficulties . He is the most incredible, funny , courageous and witty person your ever likely to met . He has touched so many people in his special way and never fails to bring a smile to peoples faces.
Everyday to Joseph is a challenge and a struggle , From waking up to when he goes to bed life is full of challenges that we can't even begin to imagine .
But he does it and a huge part of him being able to do this is due to the support , encouragement , help , care and education that Joseph gets from his school Swanwick School and Sports College (SSSC).
Joseph has been a pupil at SSSC since he was 7 and during this time he has been skiing twice , learnt to swim , been on far too many to mention school trips which include trips to the pantomime , theme parks and Josephs favourite museums ! and has had active parts in all types of productions !
SSSC have provided Joseph with a excellent education which hasn't been easy working tirelessly and never giving up to try and find a way that works not just for him but each and every student that attends SSSC .
Each and everyone of the staff at SSSC go above and beyond what they need to . The effort and passion they put into the school make it the fantastic place it is.
So this is way I am doing a tandem skydive and thought it would be great opportunity to get sponsored to be able to give something back to such a fantastic place that gives so much to special needs children.
The sensory garden will not just benefit Joseph but every child that attends SSSC now and in the future .
So please dig deep and give what you can .
A huge thanks in advance from me and the big guy himself !!
