Helping children with additional needs – Rhona Cullinan and daughter Molly – 06/10/26

Rhona Cullinan – lived in Carlow for 10 years and is originally from Kimmage in Dublin. She moved back to Dublin. She is a mum of three kids with additional needs. She is an advocate and founder of the VSP (Very Special Person) Programme, working to make businesses and hospitality more inclusive for families with additional needs.

She’s joined today by her 10-year-old daughter Molly, who has Down syndrome, to chat about their new inclusive colouring book, Molly & Friends – Everyone Belongs, and why representation and inclusion from a young age matter so much. When Rhona went looking for a colouring book for my daughter, she couldn’t find one that represented her.
