Hi, I’m M, I’m 13 years old and I live with my mum, dad and 2 brothers. Buttercups is my holiday home I share with my friends, and I love going there for sleepovers and spending time with my friends.
I love nursery rhymes, especially Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes, I love it when my friends and staff sing along with me. I also love being outdoors, going for walks and to the park. I love being out in big open spaces in my walker.
I will require staff to support me with my mobility and will needs lots of encouragement to walk as much as possible as this is my biggest outcome.
Are you ready to make a real difference to me and people like me?
