Thread Name: Strut UK in trouble. Can Mudcatters help
Subject: RE: Strut UK in trouble. Can Mudcatters help
Strut made an enormous difference for my little sister and brother, both of whom have multiple disabilities.

Back in the late 1990s, my family relocated from the U.S. to Lincolnshire for two years for my father's job. One of my parents' greatest concerns was how to manage the complex needs of my two disabled siblings in a different country's educational and medical systems. They were surprised and delighted by the excellent staff and range of services offered by Strut--the organisation eased my parents' fears and made my family's life there not merely easier, but richer.

I wish I had the financial resources to contribute to this cause. I don't, but I can at least share a story and hope others may feel moved to help.

Blessings,
