His mission is to create a positive and educational series of podcasts, which will hopefully inspire listeners to live their lives to the fullest, despite being diagnosed with a rare neurological condition.
The aim of the podcasts is to help others, especially those who have recently been diagnosed with the condition/s, by trying to ease any fears they may have and to offer them some optimism and let them know that they are not alone and that there is a wider community and support out there for them.
We hope that by listening to the podcast series, it will offer some support and reassurance to anyone who is going through a similar experience. It’s so beneficial hearing others talk about how they live with their condition/s. Hearing it from a personal perspective can be really helpful.
Everyone at the Ann Conroy Trust wishes to thank Jezz for the time and effort he has put into creating this podcast series and for promoting the work that we do with such enthusiasm.
