I was watching channel 4 on Monday and it was called The strangest hotel in Britain. The hotel was run by all special needs students there to gain work experience and learn discipline. I think it is such an amazing idea. I have worked with special needs since i was 16 and i loved it. So one of my ambitions in life is to run my own special needs day centre for all ages. It will include tranpolining, which i am qualified in and all over activitieds including learning.
Do you think this is too much of an ambition? too unrealistic? Do you reckon there is one already in brighton?

No i think that it is a great idea how you want to help children with special needs. I have seen some people looking weirdly at people with a disability and it is wrong. Sure they may look at bit weird but it is not their fault that they are like that. I have a son with downs syndrome and although he does not look as bad as most people with it at his age he looks fine to me. And i think hardly anyone notices it unless they know the features of it. But back to you i do not think that you are setting your ambitions to high or being unrealistic. I am not sure that there is already something like that in brighton. I would look around first. But i do think that there is a disablility services that has a physio and a pediatrician. But if you are trying to have like a playgroup then i think it is a great idea.
