Hello and welcome!

Hello and welcome!
I wanted to create a blog dedicated to talking about adaptive technologies and assistive devices for those with PMLD (profound and multiple learning disabilities) and complex physical issues. I have been in the field for about 8 years working with children and young adults to help them to develop their independent use of IT and devices such as VOCAs (voice output communication aids) environmental controls, and powered wheelchairs. Through these technologies people with disabilities can realise their potential like never before.

I hope that in time, this blog will generate useful, practical advice and a network of support to those seeking assistance on such issues.

Netbuddy

This video was shared on the site http://www.netbuddy.org.uk/

Netbuddy is an award-winning site for swapping practical tips and information on all aspects of supporting people with learning disabilities.
I was introduced to the netbuddy website by a parent a few months ago. It is an absolutely brilliant resource for parents and I highly recommend it. I have recently been added as a "site champion" answering questions and offering advice on all things "adaptive technology". Check it out!
