Chris's Story

Chris and his wife Annabelle and their 11-year-old daughter, Pixie, have been taking care of their severely disabled son, Dom, who has complex needs. The getaway to North Devon has given them quality time together, a change of scenery and a chance to renew their batteries.

Our Impact

Demand for a moment away from it all has never been higher. The impact of that time in bringing hope and confidence to face the future has never been stronger.
