Disability charity to offer advice via texts

logobar_long06.jpgThe cerebal palsy disability charity Scope has launched an SMS service to provide information and support to disabled people and their families.

By texting SCOPE to 80039 you can get advice about cerebral palsy as well as general information about disability related issues. The texts are free and will be answered by members of the Scope Response team to offer support or, if fuller assistance is required, a contact will be sent out. Steve Cairns, head of Scope Response, commented:

Our Scope Response service is a lifeline to people, particularly to parents of children who have been newly diagnosed with CP, and we wanted to be able to support them in any way we could.

Sounds like a good idea; more info about the service can be found on the Scope site.
