[gasket]

does anyone know if there is anything like homestart for sn children over 5????

Well I have just trained to be a befriender for parents newly diagnosed. Ask your gp or hv for more info or me if you want some now

How about Crossroads.

www.crossroads.org.uk/

We are lucky enough to get them for a few hours a week, but my friends are just on the borders of another Kent Authority can't- worth a try.

thanks, crossroads looks fab but doesn't cover my area.
Blossomhill, v. kind of you but ds been diagnosed for some time now.
Glad services are available for others though.
Thought I was clutching at straws, but sometimes it's worth asking
