 You can find the right support for your child or young person with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) at the following drop-in session:

The session includes team members from: Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), Therapies, School travel assistance, Special Educational Needs and Disability Information Advice and Support Service (SENDIASS).
If you are a family member or carer for someone with dementia, signing up with the Herbert Protocol can offer a vital lifeline if they go missing.
