Our friend Jack needs help raising £6,000 for a black body suit called a Mollii suit. He wants to use it to dance with his Huckleberry Beth at his wedding and to be able to stand and take his wedding vows. Jack had the chance to try the suit at ‘National Star College’, where he is currently studying. He even appeared on 'BBC Midlands Today' and 'The One Show'. Once worn, the suit helps people with cerebral palsy by reducing pain and spasms and improving movement. A big milestone for Jack was being able to walk outside for the first time while wearing the suit.

Jack found his friends at CPM during lockdown when our activities were online and we opened them up to support people isolated in the wider community. Jack and his mom, Heidi, have been supportive. Heidi ran the Birmingham 10k in May 2023 and has volunteered and helped fundraise as part of our 'Friends of CPM' team. Now, we can help Jack.

A team of runners has come together to run with Jack and help him get closer to owning his own super suit! We have Heidi, Jack himself, brothers Billy and George, Sarah, Sarah’s son Brandon, Paul Watson and Abi from National Star College. Jack has sourced a sports wheelchair the running team can run with to get him around the Birmingham 10k route on Sunday 5th May
