“I designed the app because I don’t want any other families going through what we went through trying to find help,” Colin said.<\/p>\n
“It’s a scary world and it’s getting bigger and bigger and tougher and tougher.<\/p>\n
“But there’s a lot of resources out there and people just don’t know how to find them.”<\/p>\n
Colin also said the app was not just for SEND children but for adults too.<\/p>\n
“It is about having this one amazing space where people, professionals or whoever can actually go to get the help that they need,” he said.<\/p>\n
“My vision is that as we grow, a portion of our profits will go straight back into small charities and local communities. <\/p>\n
“For me, it’s all about giving back to the people who need it most.”<\/p>\n
He added: “I feel overwhelmed to have launched the app after spending so much time creating it. <\/p>\n
“To see it helping my children and others just makes me really happy.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“I designed the app because I don’t want any other families going through what we went through trying…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":466474,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[342,111,139,69,145],"class_list":["post-466473","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-mobile","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/466473","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=466473"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/466473\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/466474"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=466473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=466473"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=466473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
