support for families with a disabled child

LisaM

Hello there,

I'm a journalist and currently working on an article about support for families with disabled children.

I wanted to ask if a family with a disabled child from around Sunderland / Newcastle would be interested in talking to me?

If you would prefer to stay anonymous that would be absolutely fine.
I want to write about your everyday life, if and how you are supported financially by the government, if the support you get is enough, what you think and how you feel about it.

I would be happy to hear from you soon. So please get in touch with me.

best wishes,

Lisa Moerchen

Hi. I live in North Yorkshire - is that too far away?

LisaM

Hello Sal, thanks for your reply. No it's not, if you are okay with answering the questions via email? Would that work for you?

all the best,
Lisa

Yes that's totally fine - it's #########

LisaM

That's so great, thanks! I tried to send you an Email, but it was rejected. Could there be a spelling mistake?

LisaM

Hello there, would you still be interested in talking to me? That would be great. Your email doesn't seem to work, so I can't send you the questions. Feel free to get back to me, all the best, Lisa

I'd be happy to help too (I'm based in Durham)

Hi Clara, that's great news. Could you give me your email so that I can send you some questions?

all the best,
Lisa

Lisa would you mind giving people your email rather than asking them for theirs? I think, for safeguarding reasons, we'd prefer people weren't encouraged to give out personal information, thanks.
