Sex Education & Special Needs ChildrenThursday 7 November 2002
Some youngsters face their teenage years without knowing the facts of life.

Stacey Atkinson has been offering sex education lessons to children with learning difficulties and has won a national award for her work.

Jenni talks to Nurse of the Year, Stacey Atkinson and to Sarah Andrew from the Family Planning Association.
