Hiya – Just to let you know there is a story this week (7th August 2023) in the local press (link below) about how fantastic BAE Systems have been to me with my disability.

BAE has been a model employer, they have given me a car parking space and a Work Adjustment Passport which means they have agreed to help me to do my job with my disability. The have also invited me to participate in a conference in October to speak about my situation. I am very grateful for all of this.

Hello Michael,

That's really good that you got a story in your local paper. Well done. Stories like yours do slowly build up and help our cause.

I have relatives in Scotland so I will make sure they see it. And BAE sounds like they have been very supportive.

Fantastic article Michael - excellent pictures too. Well done you. Alex TLC are emailing us about Light Up Blue, and The Town House Hamilton is one such building. That's well placed between you in Renfrew and us in Lanark. Let's hope your article and our stories result in more awareness, and money flooding into, a charity which helps so much. Your fellow Michael - Michael Watson - has been attending QEUH neurologists since May 2015.

Best regards

Jean (pp Michael)
