Not only is it our 18th wedding anniversary but we have just had a wonderful few hours at the John Nike Ski slope in Bracknell with our youngest son.
We were invited to attend a taster session organised by Snow Hounds, a new group that has been formed to help promote snowsports for people with a wide range of disabilities.
Whilst physically able, our son has autism and this means he struggles with taking instructions and understanding what is required of him. So it was a huge acheivement to see him performing the lessons given to him by the very patient Paul and doing so well. We were both very proud at what he managed for his first time ever on skis.
Thanks to Paul and all the team at Snowhounds for helping us make another little step (or slide
) that we never thought we would witness.
