Friends with CP

I have a 12 year old daughter with CP at mainstream school in Somerset and we’d like to connect with other families with similar issues and age children. Is there a gathering of CP kids adults or families anywhere - like a conference? How have other people made CP friends? It would be nice just to mix with other differently abled families (tired of that word dis-abled!). Thoughts gratefully received.

A quick search found a range of possibilities in Somerset, but not sure if they are quite what you are looking for. I would suggest contacting your local Contact A Family. https://www.contact.org.uk They usually know what groups and activities are available locally.
As an individual I stood alone.
As a member of a group I did things.
As part of a community I helped to create change!
