We are moving to Cornwall next year (Wadebridge - probably) and trying to get a feel for what the community services and school situation might be for DS. He is only 10 months, and has no diagnosis, but suspected genetic syndrome - currently severe developmental delay, mild dysmorphic features, slightly impaired vision and hearing.
Where we live at the moment his community services are all easily accessible and excellent - physio, hydrotherapy, OT, with SALT to come. We have been referred for Portage and Homestart and have v supportive HV. There are wonderful SN playgroups and the school situation (both mainstream and special schools) seems good.
I'm worried that in Cornwall we will have to trek miles to find what he needs. Also v concerned about his future schooling as I really don't want him to have v long car journeys to school and back. I am struggling to find info online, and it could jeopardise our move (years of dreaming and planning argh!) so am hoping some lovely MNers can fill me in!
We are not completely wedded to Wadebridge BTW and would consider elsewhere in the county if better suited to DS's needs.
