I appeared on "Just Women" the other day, a community radio show aimed at, well, women. I was invited to talk about Special Needs Jungle and special needs education and my friend Anne, who is one of the presenters (not the lady who interviewed me) has just sent me the podcast.
As it has information I thought you'd find interesting about SEN, I thought I'd share it with you. Thanks to Ivana O'Brien at Brooklands Radio for the interview. It's an online station and you can listen here

Have you thought of starting your own radio show? Once a month, let’s say… interviewing people about their SEN situations? The post-show podcast would be there forever. It’s easy to do… technology wise. I can refer you to the right people if you want… You’d be wonderful at it!
Ha! Nice idea, Libby, but I’m cutting back on what I do, not expanding!
I think my radio days are over for now!
