”I enjoy running around”
For Mental Health Awareness Week, we spoke to one of our clients about the activities they enjoy for this year’s theme of movement.
This year’s theme for Mental Health Awareness Week is movement. We spoke to one of our clients about the activities they enjoy and why they find them important.
“I walk. I walk to the shops and I like to walk to the train station to go to London. In August I’m going to see ‘Matilda’ with my Support Worker in London. I’m excited about that.
I also go swimming. I like the wave machine, it’s fun! And I enjoy running around in Ninja Warrior Adventure Centre. There’s a slide and things you can jump on there.
I like dancing and singing to Mamma Mia – I’ve got the DVD.
And I go horse riding every week. My Support Worker drives me there. It’s good. I like trotting. I’ve got a favourite horse called Leo. I like horses.”
