 Anne |
Anne has worked for the past 25 years supporting children and young people who have severe and profound learning disabilities. She has been especially interested and involved in helping those who challenge the learning environment and she has a lot of success in this area.
Anne is currently supporting Lindsay Graham in the TEENS+ project and hopes to be able to offer much from her teaching experience and current role as Deputy Headteacher of a Special Needs School. |
 Ruth |
Ruth is the mother of a teenage son with autism and learning difficulties. She also has responsibility for special programmes at Jewel and Esk Valley College of further education. She is acutely aware of the issues facing families with children with additional support needs, and the lack of post-school educational opportunities for those with complex needs.
Ruth served on the Scottish Executive committee that produced Paternership Matters, which set out to clarify the roles of individual organisations involved in accesing college provision. More recently she has supported Jane Ansell in planning the TEENS+ project and continue to serve as an advisor on the educational elements of the project. |
 Louise |
Louise is a Specialist Paediatric Health Visitor, responsible for children with special needs within the East End of Glasgow. She is based at the Child Development Centre situated within Bridgeton Health Centre, Glasgow, which she originally set up.
Her previous roles have included lecturing input at Caledonia University, Glasgow, working in Zambia and South Africa for 3 years and general adult medicine. Her personal interests include cycling, long distance walking and travel. |
 Carol |
Carol is Project manager of Respite Care at the City of Edinburgh Council. She qualified in 1980 as a social worker focusing on working with and promoting the needs of both disabled children and adults. Her interest in Sleep Scotland began in 1998 training as one of their Sleep Counsellors, which further developed into a year's secondment to support their work throughout Scotland. |
