The project website is still available at http://www.bfi.org.uk/education/teaching/disability/
Source materials available for download are -
Teaching Guide, Website source, and Disability in the Media.

Upper limb deficiency- Support group website - advice for parents and professionals
www.reach.org.uk/ReachCMS/Page/108/Page.aspx
Reach is a National Organisation that supports parents and pupils who have an upper limb deficiency. There are quite a few pupils in Redbridge Schools who have one arm missing or affected- this may be useful to them as there are stories of pupils successfully accessing school life. There is also a DVD you can purchase.

Net Buddy - Site where you can share what works - highly recommended - give this site to parents !
www.netbuddy.org.uk/get-tip/
I have just found this site and what a find for parents of children with SEN or professionals struggling to give further advice. I particularly like the 'Tips' section - it is neatly organised into categories such as sleep, managing behaviour, appointments, communication etc. Under each section you will find a wealth of information and ideas that people have tried and happy to share. Well organised and very accessible.
