Testimonials

"

The trust is fantastic. Giving us the opportunity to purchase the laptop which he used constantly for revision and school work . He has a place at Holy Cross College to study accountancy so it will come in so useful . The horse riding equipment is still used even though w e are in lockdown as we are part owners of a horse . He has a gift for riding and has never wanted to give it up. Thank you again
Foster Carer grant of £500 for laptop and horse - riding equipment
He has made excellent progress in all areas and even managed to achieve his Level 1 trampolining award. He has built up a very good friendship with the other child he goes to Rebound with and we are really seeing a massive difference at home in terms of his ADHD and sensory needs management following his sessions. H has now achieved Level 2 it has been a game changer for him!

L willingly does homework now (most of the time) which is so very vital especially now with us isolating our household. L says " I can stay in touch with my friends, watch stuff on it, research and present my homework on it, IT'S GREAT!"
