“In the October half term, I took my children to a museum which had Brailed display descriptions. I know a little Braille and what I know is rusty, but I managed to read some of the displays, and this made the day more fun. So, my aim for 2025 is to brush up on my braille skills so that I can make the most of days out with the kids.“

“"My hopes for this year are to build on my fitness. I have done a couple of sprint triathlons and would like to build up to a standard distance this year.  I would also like to do the Manchester to Blackpool bike ride, a 100mile bike ride and to swim in Ullswater, Crummock water and Buttermere.  I am on the hunt for a treadmill so I can carry on running when the conditions outside are rubbish.  I am hoping to do some swim coaching, and it would be good to get some paddle board lessons if I can fit it in."
