Louise's fundraiser for CLASP

Louise Timlin is raising money for CLASP

Wokingham Half Marathon · 22 February 2026

We are a self-advocacy group for people with learning disabilities in the Wokingham borough. Self-advocacy is when you speak up for yourself about the things that are important to you. CLASP help people with learning disabilities to do this. We support each other to speak up for our rights and live more independently. CLASP stands for Caring, Listening And Supporting Partnership. How is CLASP helping people to speak up for themselves? As a user-led organisation – we are run by our members. We employ people with learning disabilities and offer voluntary opportunities. We support our members to have their say about how local services are developed. We have a training group called Listen To Us – who deliver learning disability awareness training. We run a campaigning group called Take Notice. We work in partnership with other organisations to run projects. We provide one to one support, information, advice and signposting.

Story

As the Mayor of Wokingham Town, my charity of the year is the amazing local charity CLASP, (Caring, Listening, and Supporting Partnership).

They give so much to our local community that I want to give something back to them. So, I'm running the Wokingham Half Marathon on Sunday 22 February to raise money and awareness of this incredible organisation.

CLASP is a fantastic local charity and self-advocacy group for people with learning disabilities in the Wokingham Borough.

They:

• Are run by its members, for its members

• Provide paid jobs and volunteering opportunities

• Support their members to have their say about how local services are developed, provide one to one support, information, advice and signposting.

I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the members and staff in the last 7 months and I've been blown away by what a creative, talented and determined group of people they are. You can find our more about them here: CLASP.
