'The Mindroom charity is a remarkable force for change and growth, especially for individuals with vulnerabilities and their families. The work and dedication of Sophie Dow and her team have already brought enormous change to the way people think, the way services are delivered and the way inclusive practices can be extended to each and every member of society.
