Feedback from parents
“Amazing to be honest. Other people should start with this. So easy to put into everyday life. Not a big chore.”
EPIC Parent
“It was a breath of fresh air to get these resources. It’s quite scary as a mum when you get told these things. You join the waiting list and there is just nothing. You are expected to wait. It was so helpful to know somebody was trying to help.”
EPIC Parent
“I will be carrying on with these strategies. I’m gong to use this for a very long time.”
EPIC Parent
“There is no other information out there that doesn’t involve reading It was a ‘breath of fresh air’ to do this….you should make it known to parents that it is possible to do this without reading.”
EPIC Parent
“I thought it was fabulous and I felt supported during a tough time.”

Who is EPIC not for?
The EPIC method is based on conversation and games. If your child has very low verbal abilities or is unable to engage at all with games of any kind, the EPIC tools may not be right for you just now. Perhaps revisit us in a few years time?
But don't worry if conversation or games are just a little out of the ordinary for you - we have tips and suggestions to help and you can always ask us for advice.
