Calling all siblings and parents

Dear all

I know covid-19 is the biggest issue for everyone at the moment, but next week we are going to try to take our minds off it for a while. We are going to be celebrating everything to do with siblings.

If your brother or sister has a learning disability we'd love to hear from you. Perhaps you have a story to share, or a question you'd like to ask.

Or may be you are a parent who'd like to tell us about your children?

Clare, the CEO of the SIBS charity will also be around to help answer any questions that you have.

All the best

Sarah

Hi. I'm not a sibling but it's a great idea to shine a light on them. There are some lovely videos on YouTube at the moment where siblings are doing videos together. Here's a makaton one @signalongwithus: twitter.com/signalongwithus...

Good luck with next week 😃
