Will the genetic disorder affect his day to day life, or physical difficulties? Have you looked up https://www.barnet.gov.uk/benefits-grants-and-financial-advice/benefits-support-and-advice/benefits-families/benefits Or https://www.barnetmencap.org.uk/ This is if your child has learning difficulties or autism. How old is your child? As mentioned, definitely call the telephone number, you will speak to a duty health visitor who will then allocate you a HV. I work along side the Hv's so if you have any questions you can message me.
My little boy is autistic and we attend a really lovely group in New Barnet on Monday’s for children with various medical and learning needs. It’s at St James’ Church on East Barnet Road at 09:30 until 11:00 every Monday during term time. The people who run it are so lovely and supportive and there is often a professional from local support services (health visitor, bels, Oakleigh School) who will visit at least once/twice a term. Barnet Local Offer is really good to look at to see what support may be available to you.
He’s only 2 months. Thanks all
