Title: Jennifer Perl - Wasps fan
Post by: welsh wasp on January 05, 2022, 06:47:38 PM

Not sure I have got the surname correct - this lady and partner were interviewed on BBC News at 18.00 on Wednesday 5th. She is disabled and needs major social care support getting up in the morning and getting back into bed. In one scene, she was pictured in a wheelchair with a large Wasps blanket wrapped around her.
I intend to write to the Wasps CEO asking what help the club can provide for her even if it as little as getting to matches with our support.
Some of you make like to do the same thing.

Peter, I saw the BBC feature as well and was impressed by the Wasps blanket. I did a search on the BBC News site and could not find anything.

I watched the clip and the Wasps fan is NOT Jennifer at all. It is Suzanne Manser. The person called Jennifer was included in the middle of the report.
