Within Issue 114
The Summer issue of the PMLD LINK journal will be one of our ‘general’ issues, without any theme and so we welcome contributions on ANY topics that are important or of interest to you.
We know how popular the ‘Sensory Engagement’ theme of the Spring issue has been, so additional items on that subject would be welcomed. We know that people would like also to see articles and information about such issues as welfare benefits reform, health matters, housing and adaptations to properties (especially rental properties), adoption and fostering, meaningful activities/ opportunities during the Summer holidays especially in rural areas, and the trauma experienced by families who are affected by the lack of funding and other issues like transition to adult services. Do you have views about the implications of the recent White Paper on reforms for provision for young learners with special educational needs and disabilities? Whatever you would like to write about, we would be interested to receive your submission.
Don’t forget to think about photos! We love to include photos and photo stories – they really help bring things to life. So, please do think about sharing photos – whether it is to accompany a written piece or just to submit with a caption or couple of lines of description. You can find our consent form and photo guidelines on our website (https://www.pmldlink.org.uk/get-involved/).
We welcome contributions from anyone, whether you’ve written before or not! The Editors are keen to support new writers and are happy to offer help to those who want it. (Find out more: https://www.pmldlink.org.uk/get-involved/#guidelines)
Articles should be no longer than 1500 words, please. We would be pleased to receive shorter items sharing ideas or useful information. We also welcome brief items of news or reviews, about resources, blogs, books, websites, forthcoming events and courses – so please let us know about these too.
All contributions by Monday 8th June 2026 to: info@pmldlink.org.uk please.
For further guidance or to discuss your ideas, please feel free to contact the editors.
Many thanks in advance!
