SEN support Group-Hackney

[okudaisi]

hi guys i know that there is a subgroup for SEN but thinking of setting up a group just for Hackney?

my Ds has a diagnosis of autism
Main idea to meet and do things together

I think it's a great idea to have a local group if there's enough support.

Do you know about Hackney Families Together? support group for families with SEN and disabled children. meets once a month and discuses different topics each month. Invites speakers from the learning trust, Hackney Ark etc. Lots of parents there with autistic kiddos. good place to meet others and get info about what services are available.

next one

Thursday 14th oct 9.30 - 12.30 at the Ann Taylor Centre south side of London Fields

might see you there.

Parent Partnership are running a series of 1/2 day free courses / information sessions for parents and carers of children with special educational needs in the borough between oct 2010 and april 2011.

call 020 7014 7123 or
email [email protected] for details.

I would be interested - my ds has severe speech delay

Anyone still keen on this idea?
I'd love to meet some other local parents

I am

lets do it in the new year then; hopefully okudaisi will see this too:

parents only meet up to start with? or shall we arrange something with the kids do you think?

Hi
I don't mind either - I work 3 days a week so would need to be on Thurs/Fri if doing during the day
