    Hi Kim, I am new to the group so not sure about posting questions etc. I am from Manchester and wanted to know if there are any independent eye gaze tutors who could work with my 17 year old son with severe C.P

    Hi jewlz40,

    First of all sorry my delay in replying.

    I don't know of any individual tutors based in Manchester, there is however the ACE Centre in Oldham that may be able to help you. They offer assessment, post assessment support and training. They may also know of people locally who could offer tutoring.

    I will however ask through social media if anyone knows of an individual who may be able to help and post again if I get any results.

    Thanks for your question and I hope the ACE Centre are able to help you and your son.

    HI,

    I am new to the group and have just seen  your post. I provide eye gaze tuition and have my own equipment that  I use to demonstrate to the user how to achieve things so that they can follow. I also have equipment that your son can use at the same time if he does not have an eye gaze device of his own. My number is 07790648338. I am based in Nottingham but can travel to Manchester.
