Dear all,
My child is 7 yrs old. Im a bit stressed out re referees. Can someone pls tell me if this is ok?

We've been trying to get referral from school teacher or GP. Noth didnt work out. So we got both referrals from friends. One is a NHS doctor and the other is a dentist. BOTH the refetees mentioned they know my daughter as "friend's daughter".

Is this ok??

Also I"ll be very grateful if someone can look into my other thread and help with some of my last min questions

Thanks a ton
Tulipz

Probably ok (certainly for the 2nd referee); references are not always taken up.

Anyway, if not satisfied with a referee HO will ask you to nominate another one.
