National Tour of Wales and England

Sara Pickard Anne and Mum live together, they look after each other. They are settled in their routines and comfortable with their lives. Anne dances while Mum keep her safe and makes toast, but Mum is getting older and less able to cope. Mum is suddenly rushed into hospital & their cosy world is turned upside down and there is no plan for Anne's care.

Her brother Ken lives miles away and has a family of his own, a demanding job and no space for Anne, but his friend Terry knows what to do. Terry is a social worker who introduces Anne to Dilys who is an inspiration ~ a free spirit who loves her independent life. Dilys is full of movement and colour.

Can Dilys help Anne embrace a new and exciting life, doing things she would never have dreamed of before?

Into My Own is a story for everyone, about families and friendships, stepping into the unknown but has particular relevance to people within the learning disabled community.
