Teresa has lived locally, leaving only for University, before returning and spending 33 years teaching Maths.

“I am married and have a delightful son who sadly suffered a severe acquired brain injury during a minor operation in 1996. Our family has been closely involved since the Charity’s inception.

I am passionate about the positive effects of HBO, informed both through the changes it brought about in my son’s ongoing recovery as well as those many others I have met in our sessions in the chamber. 

We are so lucky to have this facility here.”

Glenn is an Independent Financial Advisor, married with two grown up children.

“I was keen to support A Breath for Life as I have been using their excellent Unit for a number of years in an attempt to reduce debilitating symptoms of multiple sclerosis.

Breathing oxygen under pressure has helped me personally and I was keen to help others.”

Zoe has lived and worked locally all her life, she is married with two children.
Although a qualified Teacher, Zoe spent the greater part of her career in commerce and was a joint owner and director of a large laundry company.

Her eldest child, Becky, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy / dyspraxia at age 3 and was unable to walk or talk.

“ I was searching for any treatments which might help my daughter when I heard of HBOT and was fortunate to meet Jane Dean who was trying to obtain a chamber and lived locally.

I am a founder Trustee of A Breath for Life and Becky was one of the first children to receive oxygen treatment. I have no doubt that HBOT has given Becky a quality of life exceeding all expectations.

I am delighted to be a Trustee of A Breath for Life and I have seen for myself the difference it has made to so many people’s lives.”
