This ball is in aid and memory of an amazing human being... my husband

 Dr Joshua James Scott Paul

It rarely occurs to us that something might happen today that could change our life or the life of someone we love… for the worse… but each day catastrophic accidents happen to change young people’s lives forever…  this became our reality last December when Josh was tragically killed following a C2 break when he had a motorbike accident. If it were not for a C2 break Josh would have required full time care. There are currently few alternatives for care and accommodation available.   The most likely outcome we would have been faced with is for Josh to live in aged care facilities where the average age is 83, life expectancy is less than 3 years, and visits from family and friends are less than once a month.   I cannot imagine as his wife, seeing Josh live in aged care for the rest of his life receiving care that did not cater to his needs. This has got to change...

Josh.

Josh believed in Youngcare. He advocated that yo ung people deserve to live young lives, and aspired to influence change and give young people with high care needs options in life. Josh’s belief was so strong he participated in the first ever Simpson Desert Challenge in 2011. This involved walking 320kms across the Simpson Desert in 12 days to raise funds and awareness of Youngcare, an amazing achievement.

I am passionate, dedicated, and committed to follow Josh's great work and advocate change for Youngcare.
