The Special Needs Parents Association have been a lifeline for us in trying to navigate the labyrinth that is the path to securing services for our son.

Without the Special Needs Parents Association we would have been going around in circles and probably still would be! He put us in touch with other's that were able to help us put together a course of action. In order to get our son's case dealt with appropriately.

Our contact Noel,spent hours making sure we knew what was going on and updated us frequently . He brought up our case with the Minister for Disability, John Moloney and other Government Ministers,TD's, Senators and local councillors.

We really felt we were being listened to and that we weren't alone.

Our fight is ongoing and we hope for a favorable outcome with the help of Noel and the rest of his team in the Special Needs Parents Association. When our struggle is resolved we plan to remain with the association to help other families in similar situation's.

Thank you all,

David Renton & Ger Smyth
