Naomi's determination to go to Kenya for once in a life-time field trip!

Local college student Naomi Cheetham is hoping to achieve a once in a life-time goal and travel to Kenya next February to study with the local Pokot Tribe for 10 days on their family environment as part of her work at Priestly Collage where she studies Child Care. Naomi then hopes to pursue her ambition in becoming a Social Worker specialising in Child Therapy.

Despite the prospect of facing major surgery next summer, Naomi refuses to allow her disability get in her way and is determined to raise the £1,100 required for her field trip. Warrington Disability Partnership would like to ask all of our supporters to work with us in helping Naomi to achieve her goal and raise the £1,100 required for her trip to Kenya.

Dave Thompson MBE, Chairman of WDP said "When one meets Naomi it is immediately apparent that she is a very positive young woman who hasn't let her disability get in the way of her achieving her aims and ambitions.

I think the trip will assist Naomi in her personal development and she will be an excellent ambassador for the UK. Naomi's experiences in Kenya will assist her in being a role model for other young disabled people in both Kenya and back home in Warrington."

If you can help WDP to support Naomi please contact Jon Menzies on 01925 240064.
