YouTube
Local library service
Specialist Facebook groups

Here are some examples of Facebook groups. Local home ed groups for social/educational meetups with local home educators and recommendations for where to visit. Subject-specific exam preparation FB groups where people share ideas about how to get ready for IGCSEs, help to identify suitable exam centres etc. Groups supporting home educators following a specific approach (unschooling, Charlotte Mason, project-based and so on). Groups for HE families in particular circumstances: single parents, parents whose children have autism, parents of teens.

More generally there are also lots of non-HE Facebook groups and pages to feed your child's special interests, whether they're keen on Egyptian archaeology, linguistics, kickboxing, or steam trains.
