Dad Paul Phipps talks about the importance of disability awareness

00:00We're hoping the government will turn around and say that children with SEND needs can

00:13have one holiday a year, up to say 10, maybe 11 days, where they can go away, they can

00:21enjoy themselves, they can be at peace while they're on holiday, and so can the family

00:26not knowing that, or knowing that they haven't got to worry about how their child is going

00:31to react and act on holiday. So that's one thing really, and the other thing is to make

00:38everyone aware, or try and make the country aware, of the children with SEND do have issues

00:48regulating things, and it's not just black and white, there's a lot more to it, and being

00:54a parent with a child that's disabled, obviously we understand that a lot more than someone

01:00that doesn't have a disabled child.
