Basingstoke MP Maria Miller was pleased to hear more about local charity Muffin’s Dream Foundation, when she caught up with the charity’s founder and CEO Charlie Porter recently.
Muffin’s Dream was founded in 2012 and helps children and young people with a disability or illness. Its aim is to ensure that children and young adults can access a wide range of support services, both in the community and in a hospital environment, as well as supporting family members and friends. They also organise events to allow disabled children and young people to take part in activities they would not normally be able to do, such as horse riding and gymnastics.
Maria said: “I was glad to meet Charlie again and hear about the support that she and her team are giving to disabled children and their families in Basingstoke. Muffin’s Dream Foundation is a great local charity and I applaud them for helping disabled children to have the opportunity to take part in activities that might otherwise be unavailable to them.”
