Wessex: Mei, Grace, Rachel and Lee

My names Mei, I am a full-time mother of 3 and my Reach child is Henry.

Life is always busy in our household. In my previous life I worked in Public Law. I am a foodie and love days out with the children! 

Hi everybody, we’re Lee and Grace, two of your co-ordinators for the Wessex branch.

We joined the charity in 2024 following the birth of our Reach child Asher the previous summer. It’s been fantastic to become part of the Reach community, and we’re thrilled to take a more active role going forward.

Hi, I’m Rachel, co co-cordinater for Wessex.

I joined Reach in 2023 after my 20 week scan when we found out about our babies limb difference and since then Reach has had a huge impact in our lives and been such a support to us.

Rosie is now a hugely independent I’ll do everything myself thanks mummy 18 month old!! Along with 3 older brothers and my husband James it’s a pretty busy house and we enjoy spending a lot of time outdoors!

We moved to Worthing in 2023, just before Asher burst onto the scene. Lee works in public relations for a housebuilder, while Grace works in wellbeing for an engineering consultancy and is currently studying for a master’s in psychology.
