About the Special Families website

  • How many times have you felt like you are the only one in a world surrounded by children who seem to find everything so easy? 
  • How often have you come across a problem which seems so difficult to overcome that you never feel you can get over it and move on? 
  • How many of us have been "helped" by those in authoriity who despite having good intentions, do not have the foggiest idea about what it is really like having a special needs child and the impact this has on other family members?
  • Who has found out about a service, benefit or befriending service much later than they should have done, usuallly by word of mouth from another special needs parent?
  • How many Dads feel disconnected from what is going on or are unable to discuss issues with partners / friends?
Sound familiar? If yes, then this web site is for you. Ideas, support and information are the order of the day and hopefully something will be of use. If there is something we do not cover then let us know - if we don't know the answer then we are sure someone out there does!

Special Families is a non-profit website. The small amount of advertising revenue generated is used to cover operating costs and any surplus generated will be donated to local special needs charities.

Remember - our families are special, not boring!!
