Red Robin Therapy...one year on in pictures

12/6/2018

It's really hard to believe that Red Robin Therapy has been going for a WHOLE year! It'd definitely true that time flies when you're having fun. Here's my year in pictures showing my significant moments, personally and professionally.

July 2017

Andrew at Just Active Gym listened to my arguments for a dedicated group for children with co-ordination disorder or ASD, and Active Robins began. One year on, we still have some of the original group attending!
​



​August 2017

I worked with LEDCom and completed my business plan, got flyers and business cards made, my website and social media pages were up and running. I was talking to lots of people...it was really happening!

September 2018
My crazy friend Denise dragged me to the top of Slieve Donard, wheezing and gasping! Meanwhile my daughter travelled to Malaysia for the F1 for Schools World Finals where they finished 16th. Proud mum time.



​
​October 2017
My grandchildren continue to be a big part of my life, and I look after them most weeks. They both oozed cuteness in these photos! Our first term-time Active Robins groups finished, and storm Ophelia battered us all.


​November 2017

I did my first seating assessment as an independent OT, and loved being hands-on in this way again. My mum was extremely poorly with pneumonia and sepsis (this is her x-ray), but eventually made a full recovery.



​December 2017

We had our first snow, and went sledding. The following week, this little lady ended up in hospital, but got out just in time for Christmas. It wasn't all bad - Santa and his reindeer made a visit to the hospital!


​January 2018

January saw me talking to the OTs of the future at Ulster University about running my own business and entrepreneurship. It was lovely to be back at UU, and to meet some of the new kids on the block!

February 2018
You just never know what a day will bring in our house. This little guy was born overnight in the freezing cold. Found barely alive, I did nursemaid to get him warmed up - thankfully he survived!

​


​
​March 2018
March saw the end of a 12-week fitness programme with my friend Julie, under the watchful eye of her brother Phil, our PT. One of the most challenging, yet rewarding endeavours I've ever undertaken. 
​


​April 2018

I used the Easter break to catch up on First Aid and Child Protection training. We also remembered my dad who passed away a year ago - I'm sad that he never got to see RRT in action, but I know he'd have been proud.



​May 2018

Active Robins was runner up in the Best Community or Social Enterprise in Larne Business Awards, and we attended the black tie dinner at Ballygally Castle. It was good to get the glad rags on for a change!

June 2018
So far, June has been wall-to-wall sunshine and everyone is looking forward to the summer holidays. RRT's routine will change a little too, but I'm looking forward to the new opportunities that will bring!
So, that's been my RRT year. There have been many more people (children and their families), organisations and events who/which have played a role in shaping things for me, so to them, and for them, I am truly grateful.
But none so much as my family!
