We had the most glorious weekend with our buddies and the National Trust. #ChangingChalk We got to camp in a beautiful spot, learn from the very knowledgeable rangers and the farmer's who’s land we were staying on as well as a whole range of exciting activities (such as bat detecting)! Thank you to all the buddies and staff who made it possible.

The Annual Disability and Activity survey (Activity Alliance) found that two thirds of people thought being active would help them feel less lonely. Our own work with #SportsBuddies has found just that. https://lnkd.in/euw4QVnM

One of our Stay Up Late ambassadors and self-advocates said this about our #NoBedtimes campaign and we thought it summed it up nicely. It’s not just about partying, it’s about living a full life, even past 5pm... #TheBarriersWeFace #InclusionMatters #DisabilityAwareness

Thank you to our volunteers for making us smile. "Being a gig buddy allows you to get to know someone you might not meet in your everyday life. To slow your life down and take time getting to know someone. Every time I hear Abul's voicemail recording I smile. Every time I see Abul I smile, and he does too" - Gig Buddies Oxford (My Life My Choice) NCVO #VolunteersWeek
