Just want to say a big hello to everyone, I’m a newbie and a mother of 6 amazing children, 2 of which are disabled. I hope that I can contribute well to this community and also receive support and advice. ?

    Hi SerenaP
    Just to let you know Scope has recently set up 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 and help them navigate these early stages. It also gives parents a chance to talk through things and how they're feeling in a safe space.

    If you think this may be something that could benefit you please visit https://www.scope.org.uk/family-services/navigate or call 0808 801 0510. smile
