£2m boost for disabled children's services in Hampshire
7:00am Monday 4th February 2013 in News
By Michael Carr, Reporter
County council children's services boss Cllr Roy Perry
SERVICES for disabled children across Hampshire could be in line for a cash boost of more than £2m.
Activity schemes, play sessions, respite breaks and youth clubs for children with disabilities would benefit by just under £1.9m.
Two other separate grants were also signed off by Hampshire County Council’s children’s services boss, Cllr Roy Perry.
These include a grant of just under £140,000 to help the Southampton-based Rose Road Association’s bridging worker scheme.
It will help the charity give intensive support to enable children and young adults with disabilities access mainstream children’s activities and services.
A further grant of just under £250,000 was handed to Parent Voice for its information and participation service which supports families by enabling them to access information about activities and support.
The cash is subject to the approval of the county council’s 2013/14 budget, which will be decided on February 21.
Cllr Perry said: “I want all children in Hampshire to be able to participate as fully as possible in a range of recreational and developmental experiences.
“I know how important these services are to families who have children with disabilities and additional needs.
“They are busy juggling the demands of family life and the extra support that their children need.
“Easy access to information provided by Parent Voice and the Rose Road Association, as well as that provided by our staff, is vital.
“The activities schemes ensure that children have a range of recreational activities while at the same time provide parents with a welcome break.”

Want to make another prediction about the next general election then? You got the last one hopelessly wrong. Political analysis is not your strong point, is it?

And this 'rank and file', a much loved jolly old far left term. Alas, it now consists of an infinitesimally small number of people like you. And, quite frankly, you are not capable persuading union members to commit fiscal and employment suicide in your determination to bring down a democratically elected government by revolutionary undemocratic means.
So, your new revised date for the next general election is?

The General election should of happen or been called last year and it would of been if the TUC had back its rank and file members.
The Term Rank and File is not a really a left wing term, it belongs to the old Imperialist Capitalist. and is only just used as a term meaning the men at the front line.

Either way, a general strike would be a fruitless gesture. Unless of course you think it would lead to an Icelandic style "revolution".

Oh, and a date for the next general election? Come on, you were so positive after the last general election as to exactly when it would be. Are you losing your political nerve?

And, we would have had a general election by now but for the TUC ignoring the rank and file; who presumably still wanted that general strike, that ‘would’ have brought down the government and given us a general election before the end of 2012 - as you predicted.
It's all getting a little confusing, don't you think?
And nothing to say on union leaders being able, apparently, to overrule the democratic wishes of their members? And no prediction for the general election date?
Oh, that is a disappointing response from the seasoned political commentator, whose membership of a political party means he’s on the ‘inside’ and therefore privy to so much more information than us mortals.

Don't blame you; it must be so depressing getting so few votes, despite the masses of the 'rank and file' crying out for a true left wing candidate.
