Lisa lives with her husband, David, and son, Aaron. She’s a self-confessed animal lover and the family share their house with two dogs, three cats, two rabbits, two guinea pigs, a turtle and a fish.
Like many of the people who have chosen to leave us a gift in their Will, Lisa has no personal connection with cerebral palsy. But her own experiences have given her an understanding of how physical disability can affect an individual and their family:
“Our lives haven’t been easy. But that just strengthens my belief that you have to help others where you can. The more you can support not just the children, but the family, it just makes it better for everyone.”
For Lisa, the decision to include Cerebral Palsy Alliance in her Will felt like a natural extension of her existing support:
“My husband and I had to update our Wills to reflect a change in our family circumstances. I thought it would be a good time to include Cerebral Palsy Alliance. Our son is looked after, so a little going elsewhere won’t affect him.”
