Our feature documentary 'Being Martin' is in the Official Selection for the International Environmental Film Festival: Going Green which takes place in Beverley Hills, California in April

Last Thursday 7th January, I went climbing in Norwich. It was a great experience but bloody tough. I'm planning to put together network of like minded disabled climbing enthusiasts to organise a climbing session

Well, another year nearly over. Now looking forward to the new year and new challenges for me in 2010. Watch this space!!

In the meantime, a very happy and prosperous new year to you all

I now employ a PA through the Direct Payments scheme.

Greg Forrest will be working with me to enable me to achieve things I want to do, i. regular swimming, attending meetings and meeting new people.

The total for the Coast to Coast challenge has risen to £4,572. Thank you!

If your're a Mobilse member (mobilise.info) there is a short item about the coast to coast challenge.

This morning I went to have my blood tested (feeling low the last few days) and I'm in for a blood transfusion tomorrow.

Here is a 10 minute version of the documentary that was filmed over 12 months leading upto and during the coast to coast challenge.
