PROFILES

I began Morris dancing in January 2024, quickly joined by my partner Al, son Harper, and best friend Caroline. I am chronically ill and disabled so I don’t always dance as much as the others. However, I can always be found taking pictures, holding people’s stuff, busking, and such. In October 2024 I took on the role of Bagman, which is a lot of organising things (which I love). Being Bagman also means I can help the whole club in the day-to-day running. I still don’t know what it was that made me come along and join, but it’s definitely been a good decision. From getting some control over my body back to making a wonderful new group of friends, every outing is a blast.
