Equality Isabella, Excel Academy, UK My sister penny is 11 years old and she has a rare genetic condition called Angelman syndrome. This means she has trouble walking and taking care of herself and it effects how she understands the world around her, she can not speak and she has Epilepsy. Penny has faced a lot of challenges in her life but she is so strong and determined and she always has a smile on her face no matter what life brings. She is an amazing sister and she spreads laughter and joy around the house like glitter, she has given me inspiration to become a special needs teaching assistant and I am so proud of her. The reason why I wanted to introduce my sister Penny is to show that even if people are different love always follows and to raise awareness of inclusivity and equality. Equality and inclusivity to me mean to provide equal access to opportunities and resources for people that might otherwise be excluded.
