I co-founded WAVE as I am passionate about breaking down barriers for people with and without learning disabilities

I want to be involved with WAVE because I want to enable a society where everyone is respected and treated equally.

WAVE is very special to me. People like myself with a learning disability can help others. Everybody’s always got something to give.

I am an Ambassador for WAVE because the idea of "with, not for" approach is the way to go!

I’m so pleased to be involved because I hope for my daughters to grow up in a community where friendships aren’t limited by labels, and everyone is treated as an equal

I co-founded WAVE because I am passionate about inclusion and know that what we do at WAVE helps people with and without learning disabilities to feel more valued in their community

I never know what WAVE will create or make happen but I know it will make me smile.



I just love being around people who are completely open and real

I passionately believe that mixed ability groups make all our lives better. WAVE is an inspirational way to develop such groups.

I'm involved with WAVE because I love making change and to be who I am as a person not just with a (l)able of down syndrome, also to inspire everyone.

I'm really pleased to be involved with WAVE as I believe we can help create great, inclusive environments for all

I've been involved with WAVE since 2018 when I was fortunate enough to work for the Wave Café team... I'd love to see every community take WAVE's We're All Valued Equally message to their heart and for us all to build a truly inclusive society.

I’m involved with WAVE Café and like working in the kitchen and doing different activities

I am passionate about inclusion and I think everyone is and should be valued equally.

I’m involved with WAVE because…

I want to see communities change and everyone be valued equally

After my son’s autism diagnosis, WAVE became a lifeline to me. I honestly wouldn’t have coped without them and feel honoured to be a trustee. I’m also a special needs school Governor.

My reason for being involved in WAVE is that I am high functioning autistic and have a passion for inclusion within the charity sector. I have worked and volunteered in the sector since 2006 and completed my degree in Applied Community and Social Studies.

I joined WAVE because I want to work somewhere that makes a real difference for people's lives, I love the ethos and approach and having the opportunity to take us to the next level and expand our amazing groups.

I’m excited to become the first Patron of Wave for Change and become a champion for inclusion and helping people with and without learning disabilities to feel more valued in their community.

I love working at WAVE – being part of a great team that lives the with not for ethos, and comes alongside anyone who wants a helping hand to do that.

As Disability Ministry Enabler, I am always looking for examples of good practice and excellence in creating fully inclusive and enabling environments for gathering and worship. With such a strong inclusive ethos and years of experience, WAVE leads the way in London and beyond as a model for church for all abilities. It is a wonderful privilege and always energising and fun to be part of the WAVE team as we enable worship and seek to build community for all
