Themed Information Workshops

We proudly offer a diverse range of SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) training and information workshops throughout the year. These workshops are thoughtfully designed to be inclusive and accessible for parents, carers, and professionals alike. 

Our goal is to provide invaluable support that  catering to parents and carers at any stage of their journey—whether you're navigating the complexities of caring for a child or supporting an adult with SEND. Each session is an opportunity to deepen your understanding, enhance your skills, and connect with the SEND community. 

We invite you to join us for these engaging workshops, where you'll meet others facing similar challenges and share your experiences with others. 

These workshops will be held at various locations on a monthly basis, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to participate and benefit from these enriching experiences.
