Sophie's nomination story

"Bibic: 16 years ago a new mother was told to give up all hope that her son Charles would sit, crawl or stand unaided. They said he would never feed himself, never communicate and never make friends. Thanks to her determination, the work of bibic which has transformed the life of his family and this exceptional team, Charles, now a teenager, was able to make it to the summit of Wansfell Pike last Summer. His team who are all members of his Scout troop pushed and pulled his wheelchair to the top of the mountain, where he was able to walk unaided the last few metres to the top. Inspirational."
