In Touch - Parents fight for taxi for blind daughter and OBE's for two In Touch regulars

Peter White talks to Richard Sloane about his blind and gifted daughter. The parents want her to go to a school outside their catchment area, and the local authority has agreed, but refuses to pay for transporting her to this school. The RNIB suggest in a statement that the Sloane's take their case to a Special Education Needs Tribunal. Cambridgeshire County Council say in their statement that their decision not to pay for transport costs is about the child's visual impairment, not about her gift for languages. They maintain that her local school can provide for her visual impairment needs. Jill Allen-King and Stephen Hallett have been awarded an OBE. There is listener feedback to the interview Peter did with PC David Rathband.
