This evening I watched 'The Strangest Hotel in the World', a programme about Foxes Hotel in Minehead. It's a hotel academy for young people with learning disabilities to learn not just practical skills but also how to live independently, working in the fully functioning hotel whilst gaining qualifications.
I don't know how to articulate how amazing this scheme is, and how much I admire the two 'old bats' (as they called themselves) who set it up. It's just beyond words. I urge everyone to watch this programme if it comes back again, and to leave everything they own to it in their wills. :) It is amazing and if I could achieve even a quarter of what any of the people involved have done, I'd be very proud.
