I have always taken pride in the fact that I am an independent  individual.

get2gether has helped me realise my full potential.

Being interviewed for the job of an Ambassador was a rewarding experience. I made sure I prepared and researched my role.

I am now  organising my first event – an informal book club – and I am a bit nervous because this is the first time I  have organised anything by myself.

get2gether has made realise that anything is possible and friendship is a given.

For the first time in my life I do not have to explain my disability or medical history this is so refreshing for me.
