Story
Me & Steph have signed up pretty late to do the EMF 10k. However, we're hoping that with the short time we have left before we do the run, we can raise some money to go towards Stephs cousin Andrew. He has been chosen to take part in the special olympics in Abu Dhabi!
Below is a bit about him and his journey to how he got to where he is now.
My name is Andrew, I am 18 years old and currently go to Dunblane High School.
I have been given the great honour to represent Great Britain in the World Special Olympics in Abu Dhabi in March 2019.
The Special Olympics are for people with learning disabilities. I have Autism and other learning disabilities and find that golf gives me the escape from every day life which can be extremely stressful.
I started golf when I was eight years old and was chosen to play in the GB Special Olympics in Leicester in 2009 where I played 9 holes and came in 4th place in division 4 . I was the youngest golfer there, the rest of the golfers where in their 20's and above.
I was then chosen again to represent Forth Valley in the GB Special Olympics in Bath 2013 where I played 9 holes in Division 1 where I came in 1st and was the British 9 Hole Champion in Disabled Golf.
Due to my success in Bath I then moved up to do 18 holes.
I was chosen again to represent Forth Valley in the GB Special Olympics in Sheffield 2017, where I came 2nd.
Since starting to play golf I in 2008 I have won may medals and trophies over the years.
To get to Abu Dhabi we have to fundraise £3100 this will go towards Flights/accommodation and Kit.
I would be very grateful if you would be able to help in any way possible to make my dream of getting the World Special Olympics in Abu Dhabi.
