Diary update, Phil: November 2026

author icon author icon 02/11/2026 author icon Member StoriesNews

I have been making more songs and doing some artwork with All4Inclusion and going to my writing circle class.

I have been doing housework with my support team and looking after Haley Goggins my cat who hurt her right hip.  Luckily, it was only a sprain and she has been looking after me as I was not feeling good either. But I’m a lot better now.  Having Hayley the cat helps me with my anxiety.

 I have been DJ ing again on Insight app with the Peer Led Team.

 I have been speaking to mum at night; she’s helped me a lot when my support staff  have gone home

 I give my support staff special nicknames  – Debbie is Debbie Duck , Chris is Captain Smiley and Haley B is the Friendly Dragon . 

I get very frustrated when my rota changes as I don’t like change. I need the set days to help with my cleaning up in my flat. I can do some things myself but sometimes I need support to be there on the set days so I can keep to my routine.

 I go to Slimming World once a week. I am trying to get down towards my target weight – my group are fantastic with me. I try and get out for a little walk with my support team too.

I’m still working at the Co-op in old Colwyn and at the British Heart Foundation in Colwyn Bay – all my friends and support staff are very helpful to me. I did a fundraising walk from Colwyn Bay pier to the smallest church in Rhos on Sea for Children in Need and Shaftesbury (my support agency).  I did it with Captain Smiley my support worker and I’d like to say thank you to everyone who sponsored me and chatted to me on the way.
