Welcome to MySpecialChild

MySpecialChild.co.uk is an online Magazine for parents and carers of children with special needs.

Welcome to the September Issue. There have been big changes this month with MySpecialChild.co.uk becoming MySpecialChild.com and also the site taking on a new look. You will probably notice over the next few weeks everything moving over from the .co.uk site to the .com (Don't worry you will still be able to access the site using Myspecialchild.co.uk). Hopefully this will help the site become truly international and encourage many of our overseas visitors to become more active on the site.

Septembers Site of the Month goes to Post Pals. Post pals aim is to put a smile on a sick child's face. With their website you can find a pal, read their page and then write a card, letter, email or even send them a present.

The site was created by some very special people, to put smiles on the faces of some very special children. Take time to visit the site and help put a smile on a sick child's face.
