Story
My name is Maya! I have Spastic Dyoplegia and Cerebral Palsy and Functional Neurological Disorder, Dystonia and Tourettes Syndrome. I need constant care when travelling as a result of these conditions which the local social services will not fund meaning that I cannot go without fundraising first or complete any courses that include a residential element. As a result of this my mum is pretty much my full time carer apart from a few hours of support from the care agency. My brother also has disabilities which means that mum cannot come with me. In 2023 I want omplete and qualify for my Duke of Edinburgh Silver Award as well as putting some respite care breaks in place for me so that my mum can have a rest.
