Parent Carer of children and young people (CYP) aged 0-25 with SEND; we are pan disability.
About us
♦ Our aim is to give parent carers a voice in how services for CYP with SEND are shaped and delivered in the City of Sunderland, as well as an opportunity to come together and talk in a relaxed atmosphere. ♦ We do this by organising events, coffee mornings, information sessions and training events. Our parent reps attend meetings with various organisations in health, education and social care, as well as local charity groups. ♦ SPCF are one of 152 parent carer forums in England who are members of the National Network of Parent Carer Forums; the NNPCF has 9 regions, and we are part of the North East & Cumbria Region PCFs. ♦ Our parent reps attend regular regional meetings; the regional chair person regularly attends meetings in London, currently virtually!. Parent reps also get the opportunity to attend regional and national conferences. ♦ Everyone on the steering group is a parent rep, but some also have additional roles such as chair person. We arrange training for new parent reps if required, and buddying up with more experienced members.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at our Pist 16 Transition event today
The calm before the conference. You know that feeling. You are all dressed ready, the goodie bags for the delegates are all packed and in the boot of your car. A quick check that all your colleagues are still able to come due to their caring responsibilities. The check list of all the stall holders is complete. The hotel has managed to find yet another table for the last minute practitioner who asked yesterday if they could come. Now all we need are the parents and the post 16 Transition event will be off and running at the Grand Hotel Seaburn today
