Its simply about, where we go and what we do!

June 2024- We are a family of 5. We are Mum and Dad who try to provide a fun and enjoyable quality of life for our 3 sons with varied and complex, learning disabilities and autism. Our family dog will also come along, from time to time.
It can be hard to find suitable places to go and things to do.
We will show you our experiences, which may help you to plan yours.

July 2022- Like many disabled people and their families we have been met with the most vile instance of disability discrimination, ending access to our hotel stays.
We thought-Do not give up! Adapt! We're giving it a go.....Welcome to the Autistic caravan!
Have we lost our Motability car?

Safety is always a worry and our main priority whenever we go anywhere, so we are glad if this has helped. When they were little we also used to take stick on window alarms ( we would stick ours on with blue tack) which sound when the window is opened, you can get them on ebay, amazon etc. Hope you all have a lovely holiday 👍

Why should we buy a second hand car that we don't know how its been looked after, when we have had this one from new for 4 and a half years! We paid £3000.00 advanced payment and have been paying a monthly lease for four and a half years. |The point is that, when we entered the lease contract we were told we could buy it at the end of the lease but Motability have removed this option mid lease without informing any Motability customers! Thanks for taking the time to comment👍

changing to 6kg could be an issue for nose weight. I think Flo Gas still do the small bottles but you may need a different pig tail

@theautisticcaravan3783 Год назад
Yeh, we have thought about the weight and it is not ideal, we were just relieved that we did have the room for the 6kg. We will have to see how it goes but we'll look into that, thank you.

Hello there, I suppose it just comes with having an older caravan that they will be a little more prone to faults but we would not swap it for a new one. Thank you for the comment, just popped over to your channel and it is good to find someone else with an older van. The wiring in ours looks like a bowl of spaghetti so it was a good job there was an electrician to hand.
