SEND Coffee Morning

A BIG thank you to everyone who was able to attend our SEND Coffee Morning yesterday.

Our next meeting will be on Thursday 20th April at 9-10am. We will be joined by Jan Bennett from Autisk. Autisk is a constituted support community group in Stockport offering social groups, workshops, advice and signposting to families who have children with additional needs.

No diagnosis is needed to join their groups as they are very aware that it is hard on the pathway to diagnosis.

Autisk have a fully functional sensory room that can be accessed for free via their social groups and it is also open to use every Wednesday 11.30am-2pm.

They welcome families from all areas of Stockport and surrounding areas. We look forward to chatting more about Autisk at the next Coffee Morning. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions about how the group has applied for funding through charities – something families had asked about this during our meeting in February.

Jan’s attendance at the next meeting has been organised by one of our families - Many thanks go to them for coordinating her attendance at our session. The sharing of knowledge around facilities and support available to our SEND community through our Coffee Meetings has been overwhelming – thanks also go to all who have been able to contribute.
