Hey there!
Apologies if this is already on here somewhere..
Where are folks from? I'm from Shropshire and would love to network with others in a similar area (or not) further afield is also great.
Thanks!

I was born in Shropshire and lived there till I was about three. I've been in Gloucestershire for 33yrs and spent 7yrs in Coventry between.
This topic has been raised before but no harm in having a new thread in Chat 8-)

With a foot full of bullets I tried to run faster but I just hobbled on to the next disaster.

I'm afraid I'm in Hertfordshire. I just learnt that The Staves (the band) are from my town (Watford) - wohoo!

Thanks for the replies
Quite a mixed bag then!
Do any of you do any meet ups or have Facebook groups?..
I am so keen on getting something set up for people to find support I.e daily resources, tools, helpful handouts etc
My first goal is to broaden awareness on Dyspraxia in the workplace

I was born in County Durham but grew up in North Yorkshire. I now live in County Durham again (having returned there a couple of years ago).

Born in the Paris suburbs, but lived most of my life in a northwest part of France called Brittanny.
I also lived in Aberystwyth, Wales, for almost a year. Good fun, beautiful place and country.

England used to own Brittany, hence the name.
