Welcome to the community @Leema1
How are you and son, doing today? I am sorry to hear your son, we are all here for you. I have moved you over to our
parents and carers discussions, where other members can support you. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Scope have recently launched a new service called Navigate. Navigate provides a six week programme of online and telephone support to parents who have a child going through diagnosis or have a child who has recently been diagnosed with a disability (within 12 months). The aim is to provide parents of a child with a disability with emotional and practical support.
