Are you a parent or carer of a child or young person with special educational needs (SEN)? Our Parent Support team is here for you. All our team members are parent carers themselves or have direct experience with SEN, so they truly understand the challenges you face.
We offer:
– We are trained to assist parent carers in completing DLA, PIP, or Universal Credit forms. – Get guidance on the Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) application process and understand your options. – We can point you towards relevant services and resources in Medway.
How to access support: Simply complete the form on our website, and a member of our team will get in touch. We aim to provide a warm, understanding, and practical service to help you navigate the challenges of caring for a child or young person with SEN.
All support is free and confidential.
