Alex is an award-winning individual with international experience working with
children and young people. Eight years of experience as a teacher led to him to establish a not-for-profit organisation that empowers young adults with disabilities to create positive social change, by delivering awareness training across schools, community groups, businesses and more. They have delivered training to over 1600 people, with 100% of their audience recommending their work.
Alex is the author of a new children's book to raise awareness of Dementia, inspired by his grandmother, who has Mixed Dementia. A crowdfunding campaign supported the production of the book, which will be released in early 2021 as part of an educational series for children
about different disabilities and long-term health conditions. For more information, visit www.happysmilesblog.co.uk.
