How can we help
- By putting you in touch with other families who are facing similar problems.
- By passing on advice which has helped us in the day to day management of our children.
- By sending information which will help professionals in medical and educational fields to understand more about our special children. (see below)
- By advising about benefits to which you may be entitled (U.K. and Eire)
- Most of all, by listening and caring.
In addition you can receive newsletters and details of our annual conference where families and professionals meet to share knowledge and support.
The annual Family Conference organised by the Society allows our widely dispersed national membership to meet together to share their thoughts, feelings and experiences. More importantly, this meeting offers the only opportunity to learn more about LMBB Syndrome, with speakers drawn from a range of interested professionals, and advice is given on the management of the various problems associated with LMBBS. Most important of all, members are able to share their hopes and fears with people who understand. For once in the year they are not alone. Parents are not set apart with their 'different' children. LMBBS children are often difficult to manage, especially away from home. Many families cannot contemplate undertaking even a short family holiday. The LMBBS Family Conference is organised so that the whole family can benefit and parents do not have to keep explaining their child's difficult behaviour or disorder. Trained and experienced helpers are always on hand allowing parents to divide their time more fairly between the affected child/children and their brothers and sisters. Outings and activities are provided to stimulate the children while allowing parents and adults to concentrate on the 'business' side of the Conference.
There are no membership fees and no charges are made for information - the work of the Society relies entirely on donations. Please look at our Support Page for details of how you can help.
