1 Voice: HMS 1 Voice

HMS 1 Voice: 1 Voice Under-13's Project
Norbrek Castle Hotel, Blackpool, November 2007

Every year, 1 Voice under 13's and their families, have a special weekend together at the Norbrek Castle hotel in Blackpool.

The children, who all use communication aids, put on a performance at the dinner disco, that they make in a day.

A team of volunteers, including older communication aid users, all help.

The theme for the November 2007 weekend was Under the Sea.

I went with Mum and Jake and Jake's Mum Dawn. It was Jake's first time.

I was a Role Model this year. I talked to the families, and helped in the video work shop.

I am busy editing footage from the weekend, to make the next 1 Voice DVD, and upload the movie to YouTube.

The movie will be called HMS 1 Voice, after the music track that the work shop leaders made for the performance, with messages from the children's communication aids.
