Nat's story
Nat is a 27 year old young man with Down syndrome, in this episode I chat to his mum about his early years up to school. During this time he was also diagnosed with Autism. I feel it is a very uplifting and joyous story and makes interesting listening to anyone who works with SEND children or knows a SEND child. Personally and professionally I learned so much from parents.
