Karl's Helping Hand

At the 2019 AGM members of Mid Anglia met Karl, Brian and Helen Fernihough's grandson, for the first time.  He has many physical problems but has a quick smile and a ready laugh.  Monies were raised, by the junior committee and Centre members, towards Karl's treatment now planned for Mexico.  However, due to the current world situation, this treatment, originally scheduled for May, then rescheduled to November has now been put on hold.  Karl is still in good spirits and is looking forward to the time when he can make the trip for his treatment.

He is at a lovely RNIB school where he receives lots of speech and hydrotherapy.  He enjoys this school where his complex needs are better catered for.

Mid Anglia members continue to send him their best wishes for the future.
