Making sure the voice and needs of Kingston SEND families are heard
Kingston SEND PCF is made up of local parents and carers who work to ensure children with special educational needs and disabilities and their needs are heard and understood by local services and decision makers.
We also make sure parents and carers have access to events and information that they might find useful as a SEND family.
