I have just finished writing My Blue Eyed Girl, a memoir of Vanessa, our beautiful but profoundly disabled daughter, and set in the 1960s and 70s. I am currently searching for her wonderful teachers in Woodland School, Cranage Hall Hospital to let them know I have described their work with her in the book. Having tried everywhere to contact them without success, I thought this would be a great way to find them! Perhaps being members they would see my post and hopefully, get in touch with me.
