Are you the parent/carer of a child that has non-diagnosed or diagnosed Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND)?
Would you like to meet other parents to share your experience and get practical help and advice? We run regular information sessions for parents/carers whose children are on the waiting list, have had a referral turned down or are accessing services. These run every week during term time. We invite speakers that will offer advice on how to support you, your child and your family.
All of our information sessions are currently being held virtually online. More details & bookings can be found on our events page.
