Introduction
SEND parenting can feel isolating—but connection changes everything. Here’s one mum’s story of how joining a support group transformed her journey.
Her Journey
“When my son was diagnosed with autism, I felt lost. Friends didn’t understand, and professionals spoke in jargon. I needed people who ‘got it.’”
Discovering RANI Mind
She joined a monthly drop-in session. Over tea and biscuits, she met other mums facing similar challenges. “For the first time, I didn’t feel alone.”
The Impact
- She learned practical tips from other parents.
- She gained confidence to speak up in school meetings.
- She found laughter and friendship in unexpected places.
Her Message to Others
“Community is strength. Don’t carry the weight alone—reach out, connect, and let others walk with you.”
