Hello, wonderful SEND parents and carers of Manchester!
The pandemic has brought additional challenges to our families over the past year. Some of us feel more isolated; many of us find that we are not able to make time to do something for ourselves. As much as our children have been affected by Covid-19, we parents and carers have also become more vulnerable; thus, maintaining our own mental health and well-being has never been so important.
We have partnered with 4CT Limited to deliver “Parent/Carer Well-being Packs” to parents & carers of children & young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) in Manchester. We hope that, with these, you will be able to treat yourself and exercise some much needed and definitely well-deserved self-care.
The bags will include:
- A5 word search
- Adult colouring book + Felt tips
- Bath bomb
- Body lotion
- Chocolate bar
- Face mask
- Hand cream
- Hot chocolate (spoon)
- Mini cross stitch kit
- Puzzle cube
- Scented candle
The packs are free to parents & carers of children & young people with SEND in Manchester.
To apply for a well-being bag, please fill in the form below:
We’re sorry to say that all the bags have now been allocated.
Please watch this space and/or follow us on Facebook for announcements about future projects.

Hi
I am working with some parent carers who would really like a pack. Can someone phone or email me so I can provide you with their details, alternatively I can send links out or pick up and give them out. Please can you let me know which is better for yourselves.
Thank you so much and take care
