Skydive for InFocus Charity · 5 June 2022

InFocus Charity (formerly WESC Foundation) provides specialist learning, care & support to visually-impaired children & young people. We want to support them to live independent lives, now and in the future.

Story

Why this, and why now?

Some of you will know that I've worked at InFocus since Christmas 2018. The young people we support are incredible. They face so many other challenges as well as a vision impairment (you'll have probably heard me say that we're "not just the blind school"). 

There are also inspirational staff who are committed to making sure that these young adults have their best day, whilst also being highly trained to:

  •  support their vision impairment
  • help someone overcome the challenges of a physical disability
  • calmly cope with a sudden medical episode by giving life-saving medication or care
  • give dignified care to someone with a life-limiting condition.

The one thing that I can do is to help make sure that they have the best facilities and equipment, and everything that's available to help these amazing young people to live their best lives.

More about InFocus

InFocus is an amazing charity that supports children and young adults with vision impairment and other disabilities to live amazing lives.

They’re based in Exeter, but they actually support people from around the country. 

The children and young adults they support face huge barriers to learning, living and taking an active, independent place in their own communities.

By raising money for InFocus I’m going to be helping them to use their voice, provide specialist equipment that can help them to explore their world, and give them the chance to live with more independence.

Most of us can’t image what it would be like to live without our sight, let alone having other challenges and disabilities that might get in the way of doing the things we want to do. 

Please donate anything you can to support my crazy skydive adventure, and to help this charity with its important work.

Thanks for reading my story!
