Bolton Sailability
At our 22 March meeting we heard a lovely young lady give a inspired talk about her life with MS and how she formed new friendships and a new hobby which gave her so much more.
A sense of freedom. Bolton Sailability is a charity based on Belmont reservoir offering the disabled a chance to learn how to sail. She's taken to it so well that she is fund-raising for new equipment that will help her and other disabled people a better and safer experience out on the water.
Our President David Griffiths presented her with a cheque for £200. The picture shows Hannah with President David and three of her carers Kirsty, Jacqui and Siobhan. Kindly written by Paul Whitney
