Do you have a child with a disability or are you involved in providing services for
children with disabilities?

Is your child, or the children you provide services for under 5 years of age or was
he/she under 5 years of age on the 1st June 2007?
Has your child had, or have the children you provide services for had an
Assessment of Need under the Disability Act or are they currently going through the
Assessment process?
If so you may be interested in attending an information evening to learn about the
redress service provided by the Disability Appeals Officer.
The Disability Appeals Officer, Teresa Dykes, is an independent officer appointed
by the Minister for Health and Children to provide an appeal service under
Section 16 of the Disability Act 2005.
She will be holding 7 information evenings at various venues around the country
to explain the services provided by her office. Please see attached list of venues.
All are welcome to attend.
