May 4th Forum meeting recording and presentations
Thank you so much to Scott Billingsley and Angela Lewis for presenting at our Forum meeting on Tuesday evening and for all those who attended and contributed.
A lot of questions were raised during the meeting and these have been shared with Angela Lewis and Bo White. Julie Duff, the Chair of the Parent Carer Forum, has met with Angela and Bo to discuss the issues that were raised and are planning to put together a focus group to allow further discussions between parent carers and the Local Authority about the lack of wraparound care for children with SEND. Further details and a request for involvement to follow.
