ALL ABOUT ME
My name is Royston Cox i was born in 1953 and I am married to Elaine,
and have three daughters, six grand daughters and one grandson and live in a
village just outside the town of Westbury in Wiltshire England.
Westbury is not famous for much except for its white horse on the side
of the hills over looking the town. I am registered blind with R,P and
have a guide dog called Ollie a Golden retriever. My interests are any
sort of music Rock right through to classical and i like all types of
sport mainly Football and I am a life long supporter of Bristol City
F.C for my pains. I also have a passion for traction and showman steam
engines and visit all the local rally's. and I play bowls which I
really enjoy. Last but not least i do like a drink of real ales and
there's nothing better than a drop of the famous West country brew of
cider or scrumpy to us locals.

Up Dates
Well the R.N.I.B have relented on there handling charge,
as from April of this year it stopped. But there policy of letting you
inspect your purchases before payment has now stopped as well you have to
pay when you order so we have the thing of going through the process of
returning our unsuitable items and them returning our money back into your
account . I wonder if prices will rise to compensate for the handling
charge, I wonder ha!.
The Cyber cafe I am involved in has gone from strength
to strength and now we are in our third year of handling our own finances.
Last year we had 89 visitors to our facility and we now have new computers
with broad band. It has been a tough time getting the money but we have
managed very well and we are getting a reputation of a great product,
which has been acknowledged with our coordinator Keith and our enabler
Jayne who have received Civic awards for there work for the community. But
the fight goes on for the sponsors to keep this great facility for all
disabled people in our region.
