Could you tell your story?

At Contact a Family, we're always looking for volunteers to talk to the media, to help us explain what life is like for families with disabled children, and the issues they face in their day to day lives. This helps us push for change, and to campaign to improve services for families and children.

We need people from all backgrounds with a variety of stories to tell - and we don't need you to be a polished media performer! We'll talk you through any likely interview questions, and can help you think about your answers, so you'll always be properly prepared.

Please rest assured that we will always check with you before passing your details onto a journalist, and we'll never push you into an interview if the time isn't right - there will always be other opportunities.

If you would like to know more or to join our panel of media-friendly parents please contact:
