    1. I do not know her but what an inspiration. Hannah has plainly shown courage and determination and she truly deserves her place on your list of influence.

    2. I know Hannah through my daughter who also had a TBI, they were featured in the same documentary on BBC3 and later BBC1 in 2015; she is a true inspiration to others. Well done Hannah, I am so pleased for you and I shall follow your blog xx

    4. Lovely gentle unpretentious girl, she was always at Matthew’s house parties and good company. Not many like her around.

    5. Hannah cannot help but be a true inspiration to every generation, it takes a unique person to be able to do this in such a positive and selfless way. I will also be following your blog.

    7. Hannah Wick is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. Kind, generous, modest and always a light to others. She deserves every happiness. Great things are in store for her and the people she shines upon.
