Nottingham mum 'broken' as son with multiple health conditions misses out on school trip

A Nottingham mum has expressed her frustration as her son with several health conditions was left unable to attend a school residential trip. Sally Budd, of The Meadows, claims her 9-year-old son Henry was unable to go on the trip to PGL in Caythorpe, Lincolnshire, after his school failed to make reasonable adjustments for him to attend.

The 49 year old, who works in finance at City Hospital, explained that her son suffers from Autism, ADHD, social anxiety, separation anxiety, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, a milk allergy, and he is visually impaired due to Congenital Eye Cataract and Amblyopia.

Despite his conditions, Sally claims the St Edmund Campion Catholic Primary School feels "that Henry does not need reasonable adjustments and is perfectly capable of going by himself."
