The Skies We’re Under
Nurse, author and Director of Born at the Right Time, Rachel Wright talks to fellow parents of people with disabilities and others in their community.

Whether a well seasoned parent, newbie, one of many practitioners supporting families or simply someone wanting to peak over the fence - you’re welcome to listen in. We are better together, whatever Skies We’re Under.

They share their best and worst holidays and their Top-Tips for surviving the Summer.
Rachel’s also excited to let you know about how we’ll be keeping you company between now and Season 4 with ‘Best Of’ Episodes and ‘Rainchecks’, and there’s even some Top Titty/Best Booby Tales.

Join Rachel and her very special guest (AKA her husband) Dr Tim Wright on Episode 20 of The Skies We’re Under podcast.
They talk about all things travel, from child-free teen-dom in Turkey to the highs and lows of ‘holidays’ when life is complicated enough at home.
Whilst it doesn’t shy away from the genuine sh*t show that we’re often presented with, they also share numerous top tips and moments of joy, including:
The Bendrigg Trust;
Hippocampe;
Make A Wish Foundation;
Canvas and Campfires;
Center Parcs and the absolutely awesome:
Camp Jo Jo
