I’m so proud to be an official ambassador for the Irlam Summer Games! 🧡

I’ll be taking on the Hybrid HYROX challenge to raise money for Brainwave- a charity that supports children with disabilities like cerebral palsy, Down syndrome and autism.

As someone with cerebral ...palsy this is why this challenge means so much to me.

Every donation, no matter how big or small will help Brainwave continue supporting children and their families.

If you’re able to sponsor me, I’d be incredibly grateful. 💚

A huge thank you to the Community Payback Crews! 👏😊

This weekend, the teams have once again been hard at work at our National Therapy Assessment Centre, helping us to keep our site looking its very best. 🤩

Over the weekend they've:
🎈Carried out gardening ...across the site
🎈Repainted the fence around our sensory garden
️🎈Refreshed our car park lines
🎈Assisted with a range of maintenance tasks
🎈Helped with cleaning and a general site tidy-up

We are incredibly grateful to every member of the Community Payback teams for the time, effort and pride they put into everything they do. 🙏😊

We are so pleased to have built this partnership with the Probation Service. Over the last 15 months, the crews have made such a positive difference to our site, allowing us to focus more of our resources on supporting children and families. 😃

It has been a genuine pleasure working with the Probation Service, and getting to know the crews themselves has been equally rewarding. Thank you for everything you do – your hard work really does make a lasting difference. 🤩

From everyone at Brainwave, thank you! 🎈

Thank you to everyone who stopped by my stall at The Big Day Out! It was lovely meeting so many people and chatting about my artwork. Thank you to Brainwave Independence Group for organising the event, and to everyone who supported Catitude Magic. Looking forward to the next one! 🐱💚

... It was lovely meeting so many talented local makers and organisations. Thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a welcoming event.

I was also pleased to have leaflets from some wonderful local organisations supporting Neurodiverse, SEN, LGBTQIA+ and people with disabilities. Thank you to the_fort_lowestoft olivers_way99 and bladelowestoft for all that you do in our community.
