Support with Healthcare

Support with Healthcare for Children and Young People with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

The survey ran from 1 December 2025 to 18 January 2026

Navigating health services for a child with special educational needs or disabilities (SEND) can be challenging.  Their individual needs may make it harder to access healthcare, and they may experience more than one health condition at the same time, leading to more complex needs.

The three Parent Carer Forums across Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire work together as BNSSG to ensure the collective voice of SEND parent carers is clearly heard, understood and acted upon locally, regionally and at a national level.
