While doing the colleague challenge we visited schools and enjoyed the look on the children`s faces when they where trying some sports they didn`t know of. They really enjoyed the thinking around how disabled people can take part in these sports. My best part was getting involved with our local riding for disabled programme. I`ve talked to the children and helped with their riding lessons. While here we met Louise who is now 15 years old and is training for the Paralympic game she is waiting to get word back if she has been successful. I felt a fantastic feeling with Louise as nothing stops her and she just keeps smiling. A true inspiration and i now meet her at least once every 2 weeks and help her we have fun and she just keeps pushing herself. I never realised how hard these games can be and i am so proud to have been involved and i will keep helping and enjoying it.
