And that’s a wrap on our first ever Jail and Bail. They are no longer prisoners; back to their regular lives, bound only by their unbreakable resolve to raise an incredible amount of money for physically disabled adults. We are so grateful to them and to every one of you that got behind them to help raise their bail. Final total to be revealed next week but there is still time to donate: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/paulsplacejailandbail2024
Coming to you from HM Prison Paul’s Place. Our prisoners have officially been locked up for Jail and Bail. Please donate anything you can towards their bail and their freedom!
We kick started September with an incredible £1,500 donation from @danflooruk . We appeared on TV twice and had opportunities to visit Cheshire, Haynes Motor Museum and we experienced an East Somerset Railway trip. Thank you John James Bristol Foundation for our amazing Summer Party, filled with fun and laughter. We also shared our knowledge of Boccia at the BBC Natural History Unit. Together we are supporting physically disabled adults to reduce their isolation, improve their health and wellbeing and live life to the full.

Some huge smiles to brighten everyone’s day. We had a fantastic trip with @wetwheelsfoundation in Portsmouth. Wetwheels provides the opportunity for all disabled people to access the sea in a safe, stimulating and rewarding way on board specially-built fully accessible powerboats. The day certainly lived up to their name…WET. But incredible. A special thank you to everyone that has helped to fund our vital day trip programme.

We ended the Summer with a Summer Party. Our enormous heart felt thank you to the John James Bristol Foundation for making it possible. We encouraged our members to mix and work in teams for winning our fun and exciting party games. From chucking balls at staff photos on tin cans to identifying a squishy object in bowls. We ended the day with a full and delicious buffet.
