My story

For much of the last 5 years I have been gorging myself on nothing but garlic loaves and the finest cheeses that I can buy from tescos. I had let myself slip. Friends deemed me 'not that fat' but I knew that the writing was on the wall.

If you can find it within you to help me to help myself (and more importantly, Contact A Family, what a great charity) then please do.

I, in turn, will run until I completely smash this marathon or pass out trying.

Thanks!

Contact a Family

Charity Registration No. 284912

<p> Contact a Family is the only UK-wide charity providing advice, information and support to parents of all disabled children - no matter what their health condition. We enable parents to get in contact with other families through a family linking service, both on a local and national basis. We have a freephone helpline offering a one-stop-shop for families of children with disabilities, offering advice on welfare rights, community care issues, education needs and a listening ear with access to interpreters. We also have a number of local, regional and nation offices plus volunteer family workers around the UK. Contact a Family's vision is that all families with disabled children are empowered to live the lives they choose to live, and achieve their full potential, for themselves, for the communities they live in and for society.<p>
