Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On 26th August I am going to attempt to ride a horse for 18 minutes in support of this wonderful charity Think18!!! I am not looking forward to this challenge, in fact I am dreading it but if it raises even a small amount of money, it will be worth it!! (What was I thinking, why hadn't I offered to bake 18 fairy cakes!)
When young adults with special needs reach the age of 18 they want to socialise just like any other 18 year old, but their disability means it is impossible as they are too vulnerable. Raising as much money as we can to buy a mini bus offers them the freedom and flexibility to travel safely and confidently whenever and where ever they want to go. Having the finances to hire a church or village hall every few weeks means they can have their own 'nightclub' in a safe and secure environment. How can we deny them the simple things all 18 year old's, quite rightly, take for granted?
In order to provide this new dimension to their social life, we need a lot of dosh! So please donate, it doesn't matter how small the amount just follow the link below, and in return, I will do my best to stay on the horse, not get bucked off, and not end up looking like a Thelwell character! X
