Hi, I am Linzi.

‘REACH North West’ was a project I started as a parent of an autistic child, I am absolutely passionate about all children deserving an education and fulfilling their dreams and goals in life, being a parent myself and understanding the struggles I am also passionate about supporting each other.

A bit of background about me, I am autistic and my son is also autistic, he is my whole world and inspires me to help others and to never give up!

Professionally I’ve had many years of managing teams on Cruise liners where I started at the age of 19, I loved to travel and loved people, so it was a wonderful start for me. When I left the ships and had my beautiful son I started on my SEN journey and acquired certification in Autism, behaviour, PECS and a Lego-based therapy practitioner. I love to support and champion children, parents, staff and volunteers alike.

We have a wonderful dedicated team at ‘REACH North West’ and we are really looking forward to meeting more children, young people and their families – take a good look over the website and join us.

We would love to welcome you all to ‘REACH North West’
