Story

Those of you who know me know I love a challenge and this one is very close to my heart ❤️ I have persuaded/cajoled/begged Andrea my lovely friend and colleague to join me in a trek up Snowdon!  We are raising money for Aiming Higher who have supported us with Jack for many years, I am now a trustee of the charity and I’m very proud to be participating in the challenge, if a little bit nervous!

We would be really grateful if you could support Andrea and I and give a small donation to help us raise much needed funds.

Thank you on behalf of us both and the Aiming Higher charity and the hundreds of children they support xx

Aiming Higher is the Blackpool based charity that supports hundreds of local children and their families. The charity has been bringing the families of children with disabilities together for 10 years. Last year we brought families back together after lockdown with family events such as Soft Play, the Cinema and the Zoo, as well as parties for Christmas and the Jubilee. These events are always incredibly popular with many selling out in a matter of minutes showing the need for such events is high. For many families with children with extra needs, getting out & about can be a challenge, logistically &emotionally. Whether it's because they struggle to manage equipment or feel people are judging their childs need-based behaviour as naughty, many families dont feel able to go out alone. Aiming Higher also offer groups for the Under 5s, Counselling, a youth group for young people with Autism & Family Support. Every penny raised will help us to help families feel less isolated.
