We support people with complex disabilities to communicate and experience the world

Story

Back in 2018 whilst running the Marathon I broke my tibia and although I continued to run/walk from 12 miles by 22 miles I had to stop due to the pain. 

I need to do this, it's unfinished business that Covid has delayed even further!

Sense is a national charity that supports people with complex communication needs, including those who are deafblind, to be understood, connected and valued. They are there for every person who faces communication barriers in a world that relies on being able to see and hear well to be connected. Together, we can unlock barriers to communication so no one is isolated, left out or unable to fulfil their potential. I have been volunteering with a Visually Impaired running group and have been inspired by their courage dealing with challenges every day that most of us take for granted.
