We're at Manchester Youth Zone in Harpurhey for our next face to face drop in for parent carers and young people living in the city of Manchester. It's on Wednesday 14th September, 10am to 12 noon. We know you might feel unsure, especially if you haven't been to a drop in before, but you'll get a warm welcome. You can have a brew and a chat to see how we can support you.
Which services will be there?
We'll be joined by services around special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) for children and young people up to 25. This includes SENDIASS for your education questions. If you are looking for stuff to do in the local area, Short Breaks staff will be on hand. (Please note, staff don't do Short Break Reviews at the drop ins - contact the team separately about this.) Other services that regularly attend include Early Help, Rodney House Outreach Service, Lifted Carers Centre, Equal Education Chances, and Phil Samphire, Travel Trainer. We usually have an Educational Psychologist from One Education offering slots. These no longer need to be booked in advance.
