A "festival of inclusivity" has seen
an inspiring group of autistic
young people from Prior's Court
each complete a 5k challenge.
A group of 14 young people from Prior's
Court aged 9 to 19 attended Parallel
Windsor - a series of challenge events
designed for people with a range of
disabilities operating alongside a festival
of music, performance and more in the
historic Windsor Great Park.
Young people Alfi e, Amar, Daniel A, Daniel
K, Daniel L, Dexter, Ethan, Felix, Frankie,
Helena, Jacob, Joel, Misha, and Sebby all
took part in the 5k challenge at the event
on Sunday, 7 July, raising more than £1,100
for our Fun and Recreation Appeal.
One young person even brought his own
camera so he could take photos of the
route as he ran along it.
Prior's Court's annual Sports Day was
held at the beginning of August and
was enjoyed by young people and
families alike.
The event contained obstacle courses, races,
basketball, football, throwing, and much more!
As well as being fun for both young people and
their families, this day allows the young people we
support to consolidate the skills they have learned
throughout the year. Events like Sports Day are made
possible by our Fun and Recreation fundraising
appeal which supports creating wonderful
opportunities on-site for the young people we
support.
See our website for more details about the appeal.
