As you can imagine, we have been left with a taste for tweeting and a hunger for more chatting! Please join us in the future – whether you have some tips or ideas to share about communicating with children and young people, or simply want to follow the conversation and see what we chat about, all are welcome. The more the merrier!

Our next twitter chat will be hosted on Monday 28th November from 8-9pm, with a focus on communicating with children and young people with learning disabilities.

We look foward to tweeting and meeting you!
