Special Needs Handbook - your help needed

Flyer

Here's an email from Helen McGrath-Doherty, who is compiling a special needs handbook for parents, carers and therapists, which will be available free as an online download. She's after tips, or any other useful information. Send her an email at helen@specialneedshandbook.com.


We are currently compiling a unique new publication which will be tremendously helpful to parents and professionals alike.

The Special Needs Handbook is a practical, easy to use problem solving guide of suggestions and tips for parents, carers and professionals encountering day to day issues.

We are compiling all the good ideas and practical solutions to everyday problems that parents and therapists have tried and tested over the years together in one publication. Once compiled, the book will be made available free over the internet, with the possibility of publishing it (not for profit) and making it available through shops.

We need your help!

Please forward this message asking as many people as possible to please send us at least one tip (or more if possible ...).


All contributors whose ideas are original and published in the book will be sent a free copy - so be sure to include your name and address along with the tip or tips you send in.

With all best wishes and thanks for working together with us to make this successful.

Hello India,
Love your blog and your column in the Times. I've sent Helen an email about some ideas that have worked for my daughter (who has cerebral palsy, slightly affecting her right side).
Best wishes, A

India Knight


  • India Knight was born in 1965. She lives in London with her three children, writes a weekly column for The Sunday Times and has written two fiction books, My life on a plate and Don't you want me? and a non-fiction book, The Shops. After writing an article in The Sunday Times about her daughter's special needs (Nell has a cardiac condition called truncus arteriosus, and DiGeorge Syndrome, aka 22q11 deletion) she was so inundated with e-mails that she has launched this weblog as a forum for parents in a similar position to keep in touch, compare notes and help each other. You can read about India and her daughter here.
