SEN/D Activity Provision - Northumberland (North)

Overview

Northumberland County Council are keen to expand their sport & leisure offer for young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities through their Ability2Play programme.

Using sport and leisure activities as a catalyst, the Ability2Play programme focuses on providing opportunities, expanding social circles, encouraging independence and improving mental health for its service users.  This is achieved by creating a fun, safe environment where everyone is encouraged to be themselves without fear of discrimination.

We are eager to hear from parents/carers of young people with SEN/Ds, the young people themselves and professionals who work within the sector.

This questionnaire is in respect to activities such as holiday programmes, community after school clubs ect.

Why your views matter

Your views and responses to this questionnaire are pivotable in not only helping us to understand what services are currently operating in your area, but also allow us to identify gaps in provision and demonstrate demand locally. 

Please feel free to forward this on to anyone you feel might be interested in expressing their views.

What happens next

All of the responses will be collated and remain anonymous.  The information gathered will be used to help us establish hot spots for demand and develop an appropriate model for those areas.
