| Publisher Description: In 2000 Helen Milligan had a dream. Using all her previous experience she founded a charity to provide services for local people with learning disabilities. With a lot of hard work she made her vision a reality, and set off on what turned out to be a voyage of sometimes not so welcome discoveries. The seas, so smooth in harbour, eventually proved too rough for her cherished ship, her crew mutinied, and the ship sank. This book is the story of people and places, help and hindrances, and starts and ends. It's an honest and absorbing account of how to cope with grace and optimism when a dream turns sour. |
