A TEACHING assistant at a Newport special needs school is set to complete a solo half-marathon raising money for two worthy causes. Jamie Hindson, of Wootton, will be running for his school, and for people who have suffered with their mental health during the pandemic. The 30-year-old, who is also an SEN community respite carer, originally planned to run in February, then March, but due to lockdown and the government s stay at home message, has now rescheduled for April 18. Leaving St George’s School at 18, Jamie became the first former student to gain full time employment as a teaching assistant at the school.
