tips for single parents

Anonymous

Hello
 
I am currently compiling the Special Needs Handbook, a guide for parents, carers and professionals. It is a compilation of tips, advice and ideas for day to day problems encountered by people living with or supporting a child or adult with special needs. (see attached)
 
Once completed, the Special Needs Handbook will be made available free over the internet, and internet users will be able to print off and copy any of the material, to use either personally or to disseminate freely to others e.g. support groups, schools, therapists, etc.
 
We are asking as many people as possible for tips, advice and ideas. Whatever we find we will share with everyone else.
 
I am currently looking for more practical tips for single parents with a child/ren with a disability and hope that you may be able to help by
Sharing any practical tips you have.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further queries. I look forward to hearing from you.
 
Thank you for your time and consideration
