  • Raising the extraordinary – a podcast for parents and carers raising children with additional needs.

    Are you a parent or carer of a child who has a form or

    additional needs? Whether that be mild autism or a rare genetic disease? If so

    my podcast could be for you. After my son Isaac was diagnosed with CLN2 Batten

    Disease, I entered a new world that I didn’t know much about. I felt like I had

    been thrown into a deep dark hole with no ladder to climb out.

    2 Years on and I have navigated my way through many challenges.

    I do not claim to be an expert but I do want to use what I have learnt to help

    you. I want to bring the community of families with children with all types of

    needs and/or diseases together. Lets support, guide & nurture one another.

    Join me each week as I discuss different topics, chat with

    guests and learn alongside you as we navigate this journey together. No one

    needs to feel alone in this community, whether you’re a parent, carer, auntie,

    uncle, grandparent, foster parent etc come and join me.

    In this first episode you will learn a little about me, what it

    is like to be a mother of a child with Batten Disease. You'll hear about some

    of the battles I have faced and moving forward, what I hope to achieve with

    this podcast.

    the people who need and want to be a part of our community.
