Services and organisations that have the Local Offer flash have filled out inclusion information, meaning that they meet the needs of people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

We provide information, advice and support for any child or young person aged 0-25 with a special educational need or disability and their parents and families. All advisors are trained to level 3 IPSEA legal training and our service is confidential, impartial, accessible and free.

We can assist with

  • Understanding the SEND Local Offer, Personal Budgets, the law on SEN and disability, health and social care
  • Advice on SEN support, Education, Health and Care plans
  • Preparation for meetings and attending them with you when capacity allows
  • Resolving disagreements, including mediation and tribunal support
  • Confidential information and advice to young people age 16+ on their own if requested
  • Linking you in with local parent support groups and forums

We work closely with parents, schools, the Education, Health and Social Care Directorate within Cornwall Council and others to achieve the best outcomes for you and your child.
