A new website called Disability Book has been launched offering disability advice ranging from holidays for disabled people to disabled dating, plus a disability forum where people can share stories and experiences.

Paul Costello and his son Louis

Paul and Kathryn Costello decided to set up the website after their son Louis was diagnosed with autism and ADHD. Louis is now seven.

“At the time we were given his diagnosis, we were not pointed in any direction for help so years passed with a struggle and I decided to make a website to help other parents and carers,” said Mr Costello.

The couple’s aim is to create a community where people with disabilities and their carers can get support, advice and help when they and their family need it most.

The site can be found at disabilitybook.co.uk/
