SEND Family Support – COVID – 19 Updates & Links

SEND Family Support would like to wish everyone good health and strength during this unprecedented times.
If any of you find useful online tools, activities, books, equipment or anything else that has helped you as carers of children with special educational needs and disabilities and your children through this time please do share to us, so we can add to our websites (if suitable) and social media groups so other families may benefit too. We need to help each other where we can. Of course we will continue to share what we can that may be helpful to you.

During this time all we had to cancel our events, but we are now running our face to face clubs and events following all current Government Guidance for Charitable Events.
We still would like your input as to how SEND Family Support can best support you and your SEND families inclusively.

So please do contact us directly with any questions or suggestions that would help, advise or support families caring for children with SEND so we can review. We will endeavour to find answers to your questions and suggestions and if there are any services or support out there that would help we would signpost you to who can possibly help better. If it is hard to find what is needed then we can look in to what we can do as your charity to help you and your families if we have or can obtain the funding needed (if needed).
