Peter Flynn  Volunteer, Singer and Writer

About Peter Flynn by Ian Hobbs

Peter is a Chorlton Good Neighbour volunteer and has been for many years. Peter and has sister Margaret Flynn have written a book on learning disabilities called "thick about" "Having a learning disability." This is a children's book  but I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a learning disability awareness  publication. 

At this point you might be thinking that Peter Flynn  works as a learning disability professional. But this is not the case. Peter is an adult with  learning disabilities and with the support of his sister Margaret he is the co-author of this wonderful  book.

In addition to Peters voluntary  work with Chorlton Good Neighbours and his writing. Peter has a part time job working within the NHS he works in one the local South Manchester hospitals. Peter is also a singer and sings at our monthly Sunday teas.

A quote from Margaret and Peter Flynn's book

"Try to imagine what life would be like if you had a learning disability. Where would you go to school? Would you be able to play with your friend? You might be surprised to find out just how much people with learning disabilities can do when they are given the chance."

Think about having a learning disability, by Margaret and  Peter Flynn. Chrysalis Children's Books.

I would recommend  this wonderful and beautiful written book to all my friends and it's a must read to anyone working with people with needs. Ian Hobbs (Website Administrator) Chorlton Good Neighbours.

My reason for being a Chorlton Good Neighbours Volunteer, by Peter Flynn

I enjoy doing my voluntary work because it keeps me busy and I enjoy the crack. (criac) I have recently begun to sing a song at the Sunday teas, just before the main entertainer come on, and everyone seems to like it.
