Free sports activity week for disabled children in August

On Wednesday the 20th November we are holding an information morning to highlight options available to people with a learning disability. If your son or daughter is considering moving out of the family home or returning from an out of county college placement soon this will be of interest

We have been conducting an online survey to seek the views and experiences of our membership

The findings so far highlight that while many are coping fairly well, some families are starting to need urgent support

Key issues highlighted include the need for some form of carers' ID when shopping, problems with GP services, social isolation and difficulties in keeping relatives healthy and active.

Many are concerned about a premature return to 'normality' and the possible lack of services and support post Covid resulting from inevitable cutbacks and economic slowdown.

Those with younger children will face difficulties when the lock-down is eased as many children have become settled into living at home and out of school routines

the initial findings can be found here.
