Hi everyone please support me by making a small donation on my Just Giving page! Raising money for the Snowdon Push and awareness of The Back Up Trust! Thank you so so much.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I became aware of the amazing work The Backup Trust does through my friend, Barry West. Barry went to the same school as me and a few years after i left, his Mother, Christine made me aware that Barry had been in a serious car accident....he was paralized from the neck down...for life...he was just 19 years old!
Long story short and 15 years down the line, Barry now 34, seventeen people and myself have just made history. Barry motivated us to believe that it was possible to make him the first person ever to reach the summit of 'Ben Nevis', the highest mountain in Britain.....we did it....he was right!
Why??? The Backup Trust taught Barry to know know limits, feel the fear and do it anyway and that you only have one life so live it. Barry now lives his life helping other wheelchair users to live life to the full. He is a master motivator, inspirational and exiting to be around. He has showed us all that life is for living and enjoying no matter what hardships come your way. REMEMBER...he is paralized from the neck down!
The Backup Trust woke Barry up, helped him find himself again and thank goodness they did. Without Barry the world of wheelchair users would be a rather duller place, my world would be a duller place. Please take 2 minutes to see Barrys website www.westysuk.co.uk then you will have a better understanding of how important the work of The Backup Trust is. They help thousands of people in wheelchairs (and their families) move on and enjoy a full and exciting life.....but, sitting down!!!
