Here's the link from Sara's blog - Billy had so much fun. Cannot thank all those who helped to make this happen enough - forever grateful.

What a lovely story? Thanks Dave for helping to make this happen.

It is fantastic to see a family who are so determined the give their little boy every opportunity to enjoy life to the maximum allowed by his condition and even to push the envelope. I'm sure they do not see themselves as heros but they are :!:. Well done and good luck to little Billy.

Yeah, Go Billy!

Thanks for coming back on and showing us how Billy got on; love that Sara took him down what looks like a couloir (the canyon)!

Good stuff, and well done to all of you involved. Look forward to more adventures next winter?

Thank you Wanderer, I would like to think given the chance most families would push the boundaries. Where possible, we really try to not allow disability stand in Billy's way.

Admin - Sara certainly did! Billy loved it and definitely something to do again next winter, they'll be no stopping him now, may even have to fit a few runs in over at Hemel Hempstead ⛷❄️

That is some great Bi-ski work by Sara. Although gravity helps, taking a run like that takes a lot of stamina, as well as skill.
because I'm so inclined .....
