Story
A number of people Thistle support have faced a health crisis or have long term conditions where they may have been told or they believe they can't do something. However with the right support people are able to live the life they wish to live full of all the things that matter to them.
Most of us probably have things we believe we can't do (such as walking on fire) so this challenge highlights how the right support and the right environment can change that.
For over 75 years, Thistle has helped people living with disabilities, long-term conditions or facing challenging life circumstances to ensure that a health crisis doesn't become a life crisis. By supporting Thistle, you are supporting people to take back control of their lives, like Jackie: “Thistle’s support has been life-changing;” Calum: "I have confidence that I will be able to make a full recovery;” and Jinny: “It is vital; words cannot tell you how grateful I am for Thistle’s support."
