Dignity of Risk: The world in which we live is not always safe, secure and predictable…

Every day that we wake up and live in the hours of that day, there is a possibility of being thrown up against a situation where we may have to risk everything, even our lives. This is the way the real world is. We must work to develop every human resource within us in order to prepare for these days. To deny any person their fair share of risk experiences is to further cripple them for healthy living. – Robert Perske, Hope for the families

At Hinchinbrook farm we strive to accord to those persons with disabilities the same rights as those without. A disability doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be allowed to have the right to risk and hence feel a sense of accomplishment. Wrapping people up in swaddling blankets does not provide them with feelings of accomplishment. We don’t mean to say we shouldn’t play safe, we do mean to say that new experiences are the way to ensure a stimulating experience for all.
