I’ve just heard today that my daughter’s provider is about to use this. I’d love to know how it works and what to look out for from a family perspective.
Can we arrange a chat about this. We didn’t intend to do this so I’d really like to find out more.

Dr Mark Brookes has been delivering training to the police for many years with Dimensions (I haven’t worked out how to tag people here) The ‘I’m with Sam’ project is excellent. I’m sure they’d welcome a chat.
Thankfully yes. I’ve moved since 2015 but the fear stays with me. I think it was only surface flooding in Mytholmroyd.
This is a recruitment poster for the How I Communicate project. The focus of the project is the communication of young autistic people who are minimally or non-speaking in education settings in the UK. We are seeking five parents of autistic young people aged 13 - 21 to take part in an online focus group of 90 minutes. There is a QR code in the bottom right hand corner of the poster that people can use to obtain more information.

Hello! We are new here. Sibs is the UK charity supporting #siblings of disabled children and adults. If you are a young sibling or adult sibling - we are here for you. Check out our website at www.sibs.org.uk for lots more information and support.
While some of us are enjoying a winter wonderland spare a thought for people with learning disabilities who live alone and might not be able to adjust their central heating for a bit more warmth. None of the staff where my daughter lives can work the complicated system. Lucky I live nearby!
So glad to have found you!
Thanks!
Those are good things.

Thanks for these reflections, I watched this afternoon.
Really not in her Best Interest!

You do, I was hillside Liz there too. We’ve met at at least one conference.
I worry they might want the less healthy of us to die.
Hello, seems quiet here, hopefully it will pick up!
