Hello! I am an 84 year old disabled man. I was a casualty of the World War 2 bombing raids. I have many friends who have cerebral palsy and I have been doing my best to support them for over 40 years as their "friend, enabler and advocate". I look forward to being able to increase my understanding about disability experience and hope that I will be able to offer something worthwhile to this on-line community.

Evening @daresbury1978 and welcome to the online community, thank you so much for introducing yourself.
You sound like such a lovely person and a fantastic friend, I'm sure you'll fit in very nicely here, this online community is full of kind and welcoming members.Feel free to have a look around and get involved wherever you’d like 😊 I have included below a few of the pages I’d recommend having a look through to get used to things:
- The virtual coffee lounge which is one of our categories, in which we play games and talk about general subjects such as hobbies and interests
- The recent discussions page, which shows an overview of everything happening across the community
- The categories page, which shows a full list of discussion groups on the community
If you have any questions at all then don’t hesitate to ask.
