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.

Amazing Things

We love this introduction to autism by amazing things. It aims to raise awareness among young non-autistic audiences, to stimulate understanding and acceptance in future generations. It is intended to be viewed, discussed and shared widely by anyone but especially teachers and parents.

The Institute For Health Visitors has been in contact asking to speak with SEND Parent Carers. They are working s in partnership with Your Healthcare CIC and Royal Borough of Kingston Council.

The project is gathering insights on how the 0-19 offer is working for babies, children, young people and families, and how it works alongside partners. They hope to use the information gathered in updated national guidance for the Healthy Child Programme and align with health priorities

They are running a survey (linked below) www.surveymonkey.com/r/52VHS8D
They will also be hosting a small workshop/1:1/1:2 interviews with parents. They will provide a £25 Love2Shop voucher for attending these. They are looking for two parents to join a group.

It does rather feel that Consultation is the word of the month at the moment, however here is another important one for you to be aware of. The Department for Work and pensions would like to hear of real life experience receiving PIP. This may effect you yourself or because you need to represent your child.The Timms Review steering group wants to hear from you on the future of Personal Independence Payment (PIP).

The group is co-producing the first ever full review of PIP, with disabled people at its heart.

Today, the group is launching the first step in their inclusive and accessible engagement – a Call for Evidence on a range of issues related to PIP. They will be sharing information on more ways to get involved soon.
