My proudest moment was shared with Elaine when we went to the Scottish Parliament for the unveiling of the E-Petitions Exhibition.  My E-Petition to get free phone calls to NHS numbers from mobiles had been successful – this is now the 111 number.

I had succeeded after 5 years, I was so happy to have Elaine by my side.  I had done something to help those with disabilities, in poverty and for children – those who the PTC advocate for.  One small step in the fight for equality.
