Support for SEND
Use the buttons below to find out more about the support available for your child in early years, during school age and when preparing for adult life.
Support and activities for families
We understand that caring for a child or young person with SEND can be challenging, and that families can often need extra support, whether it’s advice on SEND, help finding suitable childcare or finding activities.
