Thank you to everyone who donated and enabled ARCOS to provide a My Tobii system for David Train.  This special computer has given him a voice and he is learning to use the equipment with the help of Will Cooke. Will volunteered to help after being made redundant on the closure of Woolworths in Malvern and is now employed part time to work with Mr. Train. This vital support relies upon donations-please give generously – come and see the My Tobii for yourself – contact ARCOS to arrange a visit.
