Story
Two people that transformed Margot’s life were Jeremy Harrison (a lead practitioner in multi-sensory communication for disabled children inspired by Margot) and Kelly O Leary (West End singer and founder of Jump). The dedication they showed in developing ways to communicate with Margot was extraordinary and she could recognise Kelly’s voice wherever she was. Kelly and Jeremy have agreed to help us start a charity in order to help as many disabled children as possible to receive multi-sensory experiences. Our aim is to provide a charity that would allow Jeremy and ourselves to help parents, siblings, carers, friends and adults to develop communication skills with their disabled children through drama, music and senses. This would allow families and carers to forge stronger relationships and by providing them with the training it would be with them forever rather than relying on outside agencies and supporting services.

Margot was our eldest daughter who died in December 2015 having suffered from profound disabilities all of her life. She was the most extraordinary little girl and this charity is the legacy she will leave behind, ensuring all children have communication with the outside world
