Nottingham's hidden disabilities

My autobiography by Rachael Murfin

Racheal Murfin

I am 25 years old; I live with my mum and dad in Nottingham.

I spend a lot of my week at Nottingham Mencap, I work on the till in the shop. I work on computers, I do an NVQ in Retail and I do Basic Skills. I also go to Morley's to work one day a week.

I go horse riding, I ride this horse called Ruby.

I go shopping and spend a lot of money.

I like to go to the pub for a meal.

I like to go to Milton Keynes Shopping centre, I go with my mum.

Since I have been coming to Basic Skills I have got better at using money and getting change. I have made a lot of friends. I work better on my own at tasks. I would like to be more confident with my friends.
