Many schemes offer grants, discounts or savings to families with a child who has special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). See our support from national organisations and charities page for some suggestions of these.
The Max Card
Devon County Council offer a discount card called the Max Card to families who sign up to our Disability Register.
About the Max Card
If you are the main parent and/or carer of a child or young person with SEND you can ask to join our Disability Register. When you join we will send you a Max card which is valid for two years and free to families with children aged 0-18 who have SEND, as a thank you for helping us know about the different needs of our communities so that we can improve services.
The card allows eligible children and young people free or discounted admission to local and nationwide attractions.
For more information visit the Max Card website.
