Moving back to the UK
Hi Everyone ,
I am really new at this , my family consists of myself my daughter and adopted twin sons , both of whom are globally delayed and have a chromosome 2 deletion with at least 4 genes missing. Their birth mother lives in the UK and has learning disabilities which prevented her caring for the boys , she is my daughters half sister and we fought for 2yrs to adopt the boys and keep them in the family . We had been living in Australia for years and returned here after the adoption however we now know we are happier in the UK and the services the boys and I need are there . I am helping my daughter by sharing the care of the boys as there is no respite here and as I said no services either , we live in a regional area and are currently in the process of legal action against the boys school for discrimination , she is midway through a bachelor of nursing degree via distance education . I am also disabled and need a bi lateral knee replacement , also not likely to happen here , we hope to return to the UK this time next year .

Could you direct me to where I can get shared information about shipping household contents, from Ontario to UK? Thanks
