Outside the Box has been working with families to develop a resource pack for families when a young person with disabilities is getting started in adult life. 

The pack has suggestions and examples based on the experience of young people and their families.  It also has contact details for organisations and people who have more information or expertise.  There is also a guide for staff who work in a range of service settings to help them get most benefit when they are using the resource pack.  Both packs come with a cd-rom, to make it easy to follow up the contacts.

The resource pack and guide will be helpful for various people: 

  • young people and families, who want to have more choices and more information about their future
  • people in other situations who use care services or who want to think about making changes in their life.
  • staff who provide support to young people or their families
  • people in mainstream services or community groups, who want these to become more inclusive
  • people leading practice development or training.

The contents and introduction for each publication are on the Outside the Box website: www.otbds.org

Over the next few months there may be some regional events to enable people to share experiences around transitions in their areas.  These events are getting organised in partnership with local projects.  If you want to know whether anything is planned or if you want to help make something happen in your area, just let us know.

If you want any more information, please get in touch with:
