People with Learning Difficulties and their Needs

[jonathan chetwynd <j.chetwynd@btinternet.com>]

I am trying to build a relationship between our 2 communities.
This is a relationship that goes back at least 100 years and almost 
certainly more.

Please take the time to visit our site http://www.peepo.com, it is very 
popular within our niche market ~66,000 successful page requests last 
year*. Peepo has recently won substantial funding, against competition, 
to test and improve its usefulness.(1)

A list of LD sites that link to peepo is provided here:

Please take the time to read:
