I am mum to 4 children ages 6, 5,5 and 4. My youngest has autism and attends a special school which is fantastic!  My interest at the moment is fundraising for my 2 favourite charities: the local Cats Protection and my son's school. To that end I am in the process of setting up my website to sell all sorts of things. I intend to donate 50% each to those causes.I am also a parent representative for a local group which helps to support parents/carers of children who have special needs. We just offer support through a cup of coffee, cake and a chat!  We get speakers in from time to time who provide excellent advice about benefits etc too.On top of this, I am currently researching plans to establish my own business within the special needs sector for children. I don't want to say too much at the moment because to be honest, I need to straighten my ideas out on paper. Hopefully I will be able to get more help from business link who have given me information already.  It is quite exciting and frightening at the same time!Jayne</description><pubDate>Sun, 12 Apr 2009 20:42:08 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>jaynemaria1970</dc:creator></item><item><title>Welome to Newbies</title><link>http://www.funkyangel.co.uk/forum/Topic2-2-1.aspx</link><description>Hi there, my name is Claire and I'm the director of Funky Angel - which sounds very posh, but actually means I just get to do nearly everything! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I write books and articles, edit and publish magazines, and I mentor and coach people who are working, or want to work, from home, or want to start or grow their own home-based business. It's all fun if very busy sometimes, and I love it! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have two children, Cecily, age 12 and Felice, age 10, plus a menagerie of pets, and I'm a divorced single mum :)</description><pubDate>Sat, 22 Nov 2008 10:50:16 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Claire Burdett</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
