Hello, I am Andrew Corbin and I have Cerebral Palsy. I attend the Beehive Activity & Therapy Centre which is part of Diverse Abilities. Charity No: 282197.

I am doing a sponsored swim in order to fundraise for a new mini bus. I aim to swim 31  lengths! Anything after that is a bonus!

I will be swimming on 12pm on Friday 13th September at Stokewood Leisure Centre, Winton, BH3 7ND.

Diverse Abilities is an independent, not for profit organisation working together with families to help meet the needs of local people, of all ages, with physical and learning disabilities.

We are dedicated to supporting their needs today and into the future while enabling them to experience a lifetime of opportunities and challenges.

The Beehive, our activity and therapy centre, is a lively, sociable day opportunity setting for adults with a disability. It is a place where people can meet and make new friends, acquire new skills and enjoy a wide range of experiences.

Will you please sponsor me?

ABOUT ME:

I was born in Poole Hospital.  I am a disabled person in a wheel chair. I have lots of interests and hobbies. 

I am a fan of AFC Bournemouth football club they play at Kings Park. I also like to play ten-pin bowling at the Bowlplex in Westbourne!

I often swim at the disabled swimmers club in Stokewood Road Bournemouth, plus I also enjoy boating on my Mum and Dad’s Sealine boat on weekends and holidays.

I enjoy working on computers at home, college, and at my youth day Centre. Infact, I also attend a night school at Glenmoor School in Bournemouth where I am learning more about computers on Thursday evenings.
