On 1st May, parent carers from across BNSSG came together for an important online listening event to share their views on the SENDIAS Service. The session was hosted by the Parent Carer Forums from each of the three areas, as part of a wider conversation about the future of the service. We also gathered feedback via an online survey.
At the Listening Event, parent carers spoke openly about their experiences. Through feedback you told us how important it is to have support that’s clear, consistent and delivered by people who really understand the SEND system and listen without judgment.
