I’m involved with Wave because…
I want to see communities change and everyone be valued equally
Why I'm involved
Ingrid Skinner

Toby Morrison
Trustee

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.
Why I'm involved
Stephanie Buckingham
Trustee

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.

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.
Why I'm involved
Ellie Williams
Trustee

I believe strongly that all people are, and should be, valued equally. The personal friendships I've made 'with not for' people with disabilities has been life changing.

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

Anoushka Bonwick

I believe strongly that inclusion is the heart of community and that, for too long, many people have been ignored and unheard. I love the force that WAVE brings to building a new society.
