Child Disability Help Website celebration ...... 1 - Year Old this month

What a year it has been.  With over 3300 unique hits and over 5700 returning hits we hope that if we have been able to help at least one family it has all been worth the effort.

In the last year, the website has continued to expand as we experience new challenges and issues along the way.  And there have certainly been a few of them!

We have received many hundreds of emails and have been able to provide support and guidance to many visitors.

We hope that we can continue to make positive changes to the way our disabled children are treated.  Thank you for your continued feedback and support.
