Ehcp appeal SOS which salt?

18 replies

Oooopss · 16/12/2017 09:46

Hello

We are going to appeal my son’s ehcp. I have already booked a private OT and I cannot decide on salt.
Has anyone used London children’s practice or Unlocking language??
Would anyone recommend any other salt for tribunal?
Unfortunately we have only two months to organise everything.
Still struggling to book an EP

I used Jennie Bullock from Ruth Jacobs, her report was excellent and very in depth!

For the EP we went for Dirk Flower again incredibly knowledgeable in his field... he was very calm approachable and my son really engaged well with him.

Try Lesley Wood, Karen Lansdell or Juanita Hurley.

I agree Karen Lansdell is good - we used her at our last tribunal.

Try Myra Pontac.

If you go for Myra Pontac, make sure you tell her the deadlines are at least a week earlier than they actually are.

Contact the SOSSEN helpline ASAP ! Before they break up for the Christmas Period. They have a list of Tribunal contacts which parents have previously used .

Hello, can anyone suggest an EP please for EHCP review? Thanks

jigster01 · 15/05/2019 22:11

We used Ruth Birnbaum....very in-depth report and highly regarded in tribunals ...not cheap though but we won!

GridGal · 18/05/2019 20:20

Thank you jigster01 Where is she based? Was it as evidence for your preferred provider?
Did your local council accept private EP?

jigster01 · 19/05/2019 13:09
