Last term, I wrote a story using my Tellus* called The Big Fight. It was about my friend Georgina and I fighting over the pop star Shayne Ward. I entered my story in a competition and was invited to a reception at 10 Downing Street! I went with my mum and Katie from school on a minibus. The reception was to raise awareness for people who use communication aids. Alistair Darling, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and his wife were there. I spoke to them using my Tellus. It was lovely inside and I wish I could live there. We heard other people telling stories using their communication aids. It was a really good evening out.
* A Tellus is an aid, which allows Ashleigh to communicate with others.
