Empowering Journeys:
Hear from Those Touched by InclUSion
"THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all you have done to bring me back to life again.
I have a new lease of life that I never thought I would experience again after my accident. Something that has caused tremendous anxiety and depression thinking I was just... simply useless. I was reluctant to accept any form of help due to my pride but with M-J's coaching and understanding I was able to believe in the support being offered and wish I had taken it up sooner…."
- Paul Holgate
"I can’t thank you enough MJ!
It has taken a long time to learn and grow. When I met you this was all a pipe dream and you and your belief in me, gave me the strength to make it happen."
- Lorraine Mitchell
"I am so grateful to MJ for believing in me. Long live Inclusion!
Being involved with Inclusion for over fifteen years has allowed me to sort out the chaotic elements of my life caused by my mental health issues, such as shopping addiction resulting in major debts. This relief and holistic package of support, tailored to my ever-changing and evolving needs, allowed me to study and achieve my BA Hons in Fine Art. I then decided for my professional studies module to ‘give back’ by collaborating with Inclusion to secure funding and create twelve more academically trained artists. These were people who were ‘NEET’ and had no confidence in themselves. By the model of ‘by the disabled, for the disabled,’ we showed them that they too could achieve this."
- Victoria Wilkins
"It really is a win-win-win. M-J has an incredible way of connecting the dots, and I’m ever so grateful for everything she does.
I came to know about inclUSion after accessing an Omeo through Accessibility Partners, and since then, it’s been an incredible journey. I attended M-J’s fundraising hand cycle marathon for inclUSion, and it was a fantastic experience. Through her support, we were able to access Boatmobility in the Cotswolds, and I’ve witnessed firsthand the hard work and dedication of the inclUSion members.
M-J delivers truly insightful talks, and I’m also grateful for the great healthy coffee she can link me up with, which helps inclUSion too."
- Martin Thomas O'Brian
"MJ has really helped me change my perspective on inclusion. I am grateful and pleased to know her over the last four years.
She's got incredible people in her group that they work together, they support each other and they're moving forward making significant changes to people's lives in the world. I would probably go make more awareness of inclusion and how important it is and the impact it has. That's what I love about MJ, she brings this to the table and she allows everybody a seat at her table."
- Matt Rowden, Next Level Coach
"Thank you, Mandy-Jayne, for being the head, heart and hands of social work.
Mandy-Jayne was pivotal in completing raising the initial funds to buy the farm that now houses and feeds the children in the picture. She has tirelessly supported God in Action since the farm’s purchase, helping us acquire a tractor, a trailer, and now a well. She is also key in organising a visit Uganda in 2026 after raising funds to build our cluster homes. We are actively raising funds as we speak.
