sexual health and relationships

Parents of disabled young people have told us this is an area where parents need better support, and that young disabled people need education that is appropriate to their particular needs.

We are working with Centre 33 and SexYOUality (who offer support to all young people), and with a teacher who is also the parent of a disabled child, to make sure families of disabled children get the support they need to develop safe, healthy and appropriate relationships. 

We will be adding more information to the website soon. In the meantime, you might find Contact a Family's Growing Up, Sex and Relationships booklet helpful.

Let us know what information you need as a parent or carer.
