Dislikes: Nothing really
Comment: I have a twin brother called Tom who is a minute older than me so I am seen as the youngest :( I live with my mum and dad and I have 2 sisters and my dog. I play football for a disabled football team in High Wycombe and I really enjoy it. I've been doing it for about 2 years now. I can't wait to go on the trip because I haven't been skiing before and I think it will be a really good chance to learn something new. I enjoy joking around and having a laugh!

Comment: I live with my Mum, Dad, Sister and Cat (called Jack, who is now 7). I've always wanted to ski but never before had the chance - I'll probably fall over straight away, but I guess that's part of the fun! I've been church bell ringing for years now and I find it really good fun; as you get to meet new people everyday. When I'm older I want to be a photographer or a nurse.
