Virtual SEND Parent Drop-in

January 19, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

| Free

This virtual drop-in is happening in place of the monthly SEND Early Help Local Offer Drop-ins that normally happen on a rotating basis across the city.

We are aiming to resume face-to-face drop-ins as soon as possible. Please follow our Facebook page and/or subscribe to the Local Offer newsletter for further announcements.

The SEND Local Offer Drop-ins are held for the benefit of parents and carers of children or young people with Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND) in Manchester who are looking for information and support. Please feel free to share your stories and ask questions. We will try to help and signpost you to the relevant services and organisations who may be able to give you expert advice and support.

How to Join the Virtual SEND Drop-in

From 10am to 12pm on the 19th of January, you can contact us or any of the following services, who will be on call during this time to help:

Manchester Parent Carer Forum is a group of parents and carers of disabled children who work with Manchester Local Authorities, Education Settings, Health Providers and other providers to make sure the services they plan and deliver meet the needs of disabled children and young people (0-25 years), as well as their families, in Manchester.

We have a steering group of parent and carer volunteers who lead this work and listen to the views of other parents and carers in the local area to make sure they know what is important to them.
