*****NEEDMORECOFFEE and all you Special Needs gang who think/know that your children need some sort of assistive technology,have a look at this terrific freebie*****

[moondog]

Some of you may know about the wonderful company Inclusive Technology who sell a wide range of fab resources (switches, computer programmes, communication aids and lots more) for people with SN.

What you may not know is that they run free information days in which members of their team give demos and practical advice on their range. So much more maeningful than flicking through a catalogue.

The school staff I work with have been (as will I one day when I have the damned time!) and each time come back absolutely buzzing.

Oh, and it's FREE. Did I mention that?

Here's the link.
Information days
If you want to get there yourself google Inclusive Technology then go to 'Events & Exhibitions' then go to 'Information Days'.

I think they let parents come. If not,just tell them you are attached to a school if they ask (which you are.)

ah thankyooo

found their website yesterday cos was looking to buy happy duck and a switch for pc (best idea for dd xmas pressie)

Yes!
Christmas present treasure trove for kids with SN!

cool. Cardiff one might be do-able.
There's a communication aids roadshow in Bristol wed 26th if anyone is interested. All sorts of communication devices and various switches etc to access them.
Apparently they are unbreakeable (they test them in a tumble dryer) so am going to fling a few around
