The first roadshow of the year for families of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) is being held in Lutterworth on Wednesday (12 February).
The free event will take place from 10am-1pm at The Wycliffe Rooms and is open to anyone who would like more information about support available from a range of different SEND services.
Around 30 different organisations which support SEND children and their families are expected to attend the roadshow, which has been organised by Leicestershire County Council.
They include information on autism and education, work skills, sports opportunities, the Specialist Teaching Service and Family Hubs.
“The local offer roadshows are a brilliant way for families of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities to find out more about available support across Leicestershire and discuss with professionals and representatives from a range of organisations about how they can help.
“We’ve had some great feedback from people who have attended previous roadshows who told us they are friendly, informative and cater for all age ranges.”
