'I am passionate about empowering parents who are dedicated to helping their children with additional needs' - Lisa Martin

The aim of Special World Training is to help you and your child with additional needs have a better, more positive relationship with each other and a better quality of life for you both.

I offer specific courses to help with various needs of the child. They are available as live events and online.

I want to help as many parents of children with additional needs as possible.

I am also aware of the lack of support that parents of children with additional needs have, our world can be challenging and we need to care for each other, as well ourselves in a non-judgmental community, where we can laugh and cry in a safe environment.

I believe knowledge is power and strength is in numbers let’s all work together and support each within our special world community of people like you.

Are you a parent of a child with additional needs?

You feel isolated and lack confidence in your parenting skills

You no longer want to feel disconnected to your child and powerless to help them

You want to understand their unique way in communicating

You want a positive relationship with your child

You want your child to reach their full potential

If any of these read like you, and you want to learn more and connect with others in a similar situation, I want you to know that you’re in the right place and it would be my pleasure to share my story with you.

I run courses where you can come along to learn ways in which you can help your child with additional needs. You can share your thoughts and feelings with others in similar situations and participate in group discussions.

This is a great way to reach out and feel less isolated. It also possible, to book these courses to be held in schools or venues of your choice

To help you, help your child with additional needs to have a better more positive relationship, and to realise their full potential, you can benefit from my online courses.

I understand that not everyone can attend my live events, therefore I am developing online versions of most of my live events and because sometimes even after coming to a live event you may still want to purchase an online course so you can process all the information at your leisure.

My consultancy and coaching practice can help bring you benefits from a more intensive and structured support package for you, your child, your family, or community.

I can come to your home or your child’s nursery/school to work with you and your child, family and with your key worker present as well.

You’re invited to listen to my free weekly podcasts, I will be talking about all things in our special world of disability and additional needs. I will be interviewing other parents of children with special needs, as well as professionals and people in the community who are offering services that help.

We need to get as wide an audience listening to these issues as possible to bring about much needed change in our Special World. Please feel to share these podcasts with whom ever you feel would gain a benefit or help bring about change.

I know how challenging and isolating being a parent of a child with additional needs is. We often have a lack of sleep and support, we have to constantly navigate the system to get our child’s needs met, which can be stressful. We’ve all done the best that we can in supporting our children and often forget about ourselves.

Feel Good in a Challenging World is a weekly therapy community I am developing where you will learn feel good strategies that will support you in keeping positive in your challenging world.

I am aware that many parents with children with additional needs are struggling financially. There are many added extra costs to having a special child, therapies are expensive but much needed, special adaptations to homes, equipment and resources are expensive but also needed.

Help support parents in need, so they too can come to the Feel Good or other live events and gain the benefits they and their children so desperately need.
