fortunate as it later gave us a close connection with Doctor Barnardo's
where he is Psychologist, so that we can now contact him when
problems with their children arise and he has always been most willing
to take over all the liaison work which we had previously found so
difficult.
This Christmas a student studying at Oxford asked if we could
give her any work, so we took the opportunity to ask her to carry out
a short piece of research for us since we felt this would be a mutual
gain. We are always very much aware that more research should be
undertaken, but unfortunately any worth while project would need a
full time worker so we try to compromise with short surveys and by
utilizing any outside form of help that comes our way.
We feel very grateful to our Education Officer who listens to our
schemes and goes to considerable lengths to enable us to carry them
out; we think he sometimes feels that we are continually inventing
new categories of children but as our special educational facilities
become more specific the diagnosis of each case can become more
accurate and less has to be done on a 'faut de mieux' basis."
