A parent carer forum is a group of parents and carers of disabled children who work with local authorities, education, health and other providers to make sure the services they plan and deliver meet the needs of disabled children and families.
The main aim of Special Voices is to raise awareness about the rights and needs of children/young people with additional needs and to ensure that they and their families are consulted and involved in any decisions made during planning or developing services for them. Special Voices has a main steering group of voluntary parents/carers who have taken on the role of gathering your collective views and presenting them to service planners and decision makers in order to ensure that services are needs-led.
If you are a parent/carer of a child or young person with special needs and live in Slough, you can become involved in any way you choose.
Extensive information is provided on a number of specialised support services that are provided for children with specic learning diculties, including hearing, visual and physical disabilities.
