Easter Seals
We were joined in our virtual meeting tonight by members of The Easter Seals. In their presentation, they spoke not only about the programme that they run but also about how they have had to adapt it to the current health situation we are in. Joining us as well was the mother of a child who benefits from the programme. Laura explained the requirements that her son has, both financially and system supports and how Easter Seals helps meet their needs. All in all, it was a very thought provoking meeting.
Our next gathering will be on 23Feb at 1830 hours.
