In case you have missed seeing the local press coverage about Special People North, I wanted to share with you some of the editorial that has gone into the local press.
The Cheshire Independent newspaper (distributed free of charge in Macclesfield, Tytherington, Bollington, Prestbury, Alderley Edge, Wilmslow, Handforth, Poynton and Bramhall) published the following article last month on page 12, and also had a lovely colourful promotional piece too.
"Time to meet some Special People"
Founder and owner Joy Daglish will be speaking about Special People North when Park Lane School holds a coffee morning on 9th July.
Park Lane School, Macclesfield is a Specialist School for Communication and Interaction, and is an appropriate venue to introduce Special People North and its wide range of services. Park Lane parents will be hearing in particular about what is available in the school holidays, as well as in term time before and after school.
Joy founded Special People North in 2009 in response to unfulfilled needs for specialist domiciliary support in the north-west. It expands on the success of Special People in London started over 12 years ago by Joy’s cousin Julie who has a child with special needs. She formed the organisation in response to her difficult experience in finding appropriate, high quality child care.
What differentiates Special People North from other services is the organisation’s flexible approach and attention to detail when meeting the needs of individual clients. Joy takes the time to discover what each family needs and when it’s needed, before deciding on the most appropriate action and appointing a suitable support worker.
Joy said “Special People North recognises that solutions to families’ needs can be extremely varied. Help may be needed before or after school, during holidays, or simply for babysitting. Parents and carers may need a break from round-the-clock care, so we can provide respite for anything from an evening or a night – we can even provide a support worker to accompany a family holiday.”
Special People North addresses the needs of a wide spectrum of families, including both private clients and those accessing direct payments. Joy said “We take the time to find out what an individual family needs and our support workers are always introduced to the family in advance. I shall be delighted to discuss anyone’s particular needs, or simply explain our range of services.”

Focusing on the school summer holidays that are about to start, Families in Cheshire magazine published in the July/August 2010 edition an article featuring how Special People North can help families.
