Jack's nomination story

With assistance of his dog Ghana, Jack makes the most of life playing wheelchair football & basketball skiing & `off-roading` in his new chair! He loves sport and after his accident he felt very isolated. His mum found lots of different activities for him to be involved in that most people thought would be impossible for him to do. He loves playing wheelchair football. He knows he`s not the best in the team but he tries his hardest. He`s always on time and loves being part of a team. This has given him a lot more confidence in everything he does. He`s always got a smile on his face, he loves to make others laugh and hopes his happy go lucky nature will help other disabled people try new things. He has told everyone about the water ski ing hedid recently and how much fun it was. He has encouraged others to try dry ski ing and go to various sports clubs that he regularly attends. His next challenge is Snowdon
