(Parent Carers Together are pleased to be sharing the below post with you).
Hello ๐
I'm Beth, the new SEND Local Offer Lead. Some of you may already know me from my previous role, or through my presence as a local SEND parent myself. I am delighted to be taking on this new position and am really looking forward to working with you all.
The Local Offer is a place where parents, carers, children, and young people up to the age of 25 with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) can find information, advice, and guidance about the support, services, educational settings, and activities available across BCP. We are currently undertaking a complete redesign of the Local Offer, which is due to launch in the Autumn Term.
As I have only recently started in post, please bear with me in these early days as I get up to speed. However, I am absolutely committed to working closely with parents, carers, children, and young people to ensure that BCP's Local Offer is shaped by and truly reflects the needs of our local community. I am hoping to attend as many coffee mornings, drop-ins, support groups, and community sessions as possible so that I can meet you, hear your views, and gain a better understanding of what you need from the Local Offer.
I look forward to meeting many of you over the coming months and working together to create a Local Offer that is accessible, useful, and responsive to the needs of children and young people with SEND and their families within BCP
Kind regards
Beth Pearson
