Story

I'm lucky enough to be able to work for AAM and see first hand how the charity helps the guys they work with and see just how much time, skill and dedication goes into the charity. I've decided it's time to give something back to the charity who have given me incredible opportunities and so much fun and it's time to challenge myself. And this is a massive challenge for me, as 5 year ago I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called Psoriatic Arthritis which is essentially an inflammatory arthritis which affects joints, ligaments and tendons leaving me with chronic pain and fatigue. I might not run the entire course, but I am determined to finish it, even if I have to crawl around! Please donate if you can, even if it's only £1, it really makes a difference.

Accessible Arts & Media runs inclusive creative learning programmes for disabled people, young people, older people and people with mental health problems. Our projects help over 800 people each year to: learn new skills; gain the confidence to have more of a say in the things that matter to them; explore and connect with the world around them in a safe, supportive, fun environment; make new friends and socialise; play an active part in their local community; and feel happier and healthier.Things are better when we all work together!
