Richard and Sam at mASCot
Sam and Mimi kindly invited Richard to their base of operations at the Children’s Centre at Portslade Library. It was lovely to meet them both and to hear about the work they have been doing over the last twelve months and to also hear about their plans for the future.
It was astonishing to hear how many families they currently support but also to listen to Sam talk about her reasons to start the charity in the first place. It’s is lovely to see that the Charity has also been a huge help to Sam and her own family and not just the families they support. The charity also seems to be changing all the time as the families they support also change and grow with Sam’s own son also supporting the maturing children into adulthood with a separate scheme.
It has been such a pleasure to support such a great team and a lot of our clients this year have been interested in mASCot because more people are affected by autism than you would at first think.
We have not been able to support mASCot with as much practical support as we would hope but Richard was able to present them with a cheque from the money raised by all of our kind families who return our feedback form. The donation of £5 per feedback form is made by us to encourage families to give us helpful and constructive feedback that can help us always provide the best quality service.
Richard however made it clear that while our support has ended for the year he does hope that mASCot will remain a friend to Bungard’s for many years to come.
