Will you be joining our next "Communication Partner Drop-In Clinic"? 👥 A chance for anyone supporting an individual with Rett syndrome to get their communication questions, big or small, answered! The next session is taking place: 🗓 Thursday 2nd May ⏰ 12:00 - 13:00 🔗 On Zoom (link below) If you support someone with Rett syndrome and have any questions about their communication – big or small – this is an opportunity for you to get answers. It's also a time to share any communication highs/lows. No need to register or stay for the full time, just drop in during the clinic hour and ask our RCCs for help. It doesn’t matter what stage of communication the person with Rett syndrome is at – there may be nothing in place yet or you may be a bit further on and feeling stuck. No question is too silly or scary! To join our session on Thursday (02.05), simply click on the following link: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/epPV-UVU These sessions run twice monthly so if you can't attend this clinic the next one is taking place on Tuesday 20.05 at 20:00.
