Parent Carer Survey January 2021
We need your help to correctly inform the Local Authority, Health and Social Care of your experiences during the latest lockdown.
Normally we would gather this kind of info at coffee mornings and events, but with the current situation surrounding Covid, we have to find different ways to do this this. No personal or identifying information is gathered in this survey. This information will help everyone to understand what is needed in our local area for children & young people (CYP) with SEND.
You can access the survey HERE (opens in new window)
We appreciate there have been surveys coming at you from lots of different organisations, your responses help inform change, and help shape better outcomes for our SEND CYP.
Thank you.
We are a parent led, voluntary group of parents, carers and grandparents of children and young people (CYP) aged 0-25 with SEND (special educational needs and disabilities); our CYP have a variety of SEND.
♦
Our aim is to give parent carers a voice in how services for CYP with SEND are shaped and delivered in the City of Sunderland, as well as an opportunity to come together and talk in a relaxed atmosphere.
♦
We do this by organising events, coffee mornings, information sessions and training events. Our parent reps attend meetings with various organisations in health, education and social care, as well as local charity groups.
♦
SPCF are one of 152 parent carer forums in England who are members of the National Network of Parent Carer Forums; the NNPCF has 9 regions, and we are part of the North East & Cumbria Region PCFs.
♦
Our parent reps attend regular regional meetings; the regional chair person regularly attends meetings in London, currently virtually!. Parent reps also get the opportunity to attend regional and national conferences.
♦
This means that the voice of parent carers in Sunderland help influence services for children and young people with SEND locally, regionally and nationally!
