Hi. Let me introduce myself.
I’m B or Twanky, some of you may even know me by my Sunday name Belinda!!
(The only time you will catch me in a dress is at a Little Hiccups Ball)
I joined Little Hiccups as a parent back in 2013 after meeting Linsay and Jack at a Christmas party.
Myself and my wife Karen are foster parents for children with disabilities.
Karen was a Learning Disability nurse for 25 years. And I worked as a Senior Support Worker for the NHS in Challenging Behaviour and Learning Disabilities for 9 years before changing from Adults to children and fostering for Leeds City Council. We have two adopted SEN children and one Foster Child.
I’m very sociable, love watching sport, baking and attending Little Hiccups events!
As my journey has finally taken me full circle with Little Hiccups. Finally getting to attend Stay n’ Play, I thought it was about time I registered as a volunteer so I can help out at various activities/events, as our Little Hiccups family has grown so big over the years. In 2023, I’m glad to have joined the team of Trustees.
