Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page 🙏

Our handsome son, Justin, was born with quadriplegic cerebral palsy in 2000. He has always been a lover of life, friends, family and speed!💨

Opportunities to maximise his life chances are available in very specialist centres and National Star College in Cheltenham is an outstanding one of these 👍 and often ahead of the curve.

The number of children who survive with profound and complex disabilities has grown since Justin was born and these youngsters grow into adults. Specialist teaching, support and therapies provided here open up a richer life for them and develop the very specific skills they need to maximise their independence and navigate the years ahead.

Would you help me raise funds for National Star so that these excellent facilities are here for the next generation? They may be our grandchildren, our neighbours, our nephews and nieces - we never know who will need it next, we just know that the need will be there.

One thing’s for sure, Justin will laugh uproariously when he sees his Magnificent (speed averse) Mum strapped to her Flying Machine taking to the skies at considerable pace.

Please donate if you can, every penny will make a real difference - thank you!
