hey @biggabum great to see you back. You’ve just reminded me of something I wanted to share for same time now (maybe even have, can’t remember)
So there is this guy Thomas working with children who suffer from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder [ADHD often misdiagnosed as autism as far as I understand it, please correct me if I’m wrong] and he does this by painting miniatures with them. He received the Games Workshop “Warhammer Hero” award for outstanding service to the Warhammer community. A lot of hobbyists send him their old (and mostly unpainted) miniatures and the kids are loving it. And let me tell you there are some real talents there. You can find more about the things he does on his facebook page and his blog. I’m always stunned with people being able to put so much energy into the hobby help others along the way.
And now: back to work.
