Kieran’s wrekin climb – challenge completed!
Kieran, who lives with autism and a learning disability, set himself the goal of climbing The Wrekin – and he’s done it! With determination, preparation, and the support of his team, Kieran reached the summit, achieving something truly meaningful to him and to our wider community.
“I want to prove to myself that I can do it – and show others they can too!” – Kieran
While the climb may be complete, Kieran is still working towards his fundraising goal. Every donation helps support more people with learning disabilities and autism to live a life that truly adds up.

Paul’s walk around Bayston Hill – coming this June

Next month, Paul will be taking on his own personal challenge: walking around his local community of Bayston Hill. Paul lives with complex needs and is supported by the Shaftesbury Shropshire team. This walk represents so much more than physical movement – it’s about connection and confidence.
“I’m getting out and about more and really enjoying the fresh air and friendly faces!” – Paul
Paul’s walk is a celebration of independence and inclusion. As he prepares for the challenge in June, we’re calling on our community to cheer him on and show their support.
