Saving...The forum has been created to help Parents from across the carers spectrum to be able to have a say in the way services are shaped and delivered
We organise events such as Coffee Mornings, Forum Groups and Information Events to reach out to as many Parents, Carers and Parent Support Groups as possible. We are here to ensure as many voices as possible are heard.
This helps us access widest range of opinions and ideas possible, and enables us to feedback to our Parents and Carers involved on the various Planning Boards.
Currently we have representatives on the following Groups:
- Transition Strategy Steering Group Meeting
- The Aiming High Partnership Board
- Schools Accessibility Group
- Our Parents have been consulted over the setting up of short break services & the New Child Development Centre
Going Forward:
- Continue raising common issues that affect all types of disabilities
- Share knowledge and abilities
- Through Information Days; raise awareness of the groups and services available to the Medway community
- Get further involved with key policy making and to work, in partnership,together to get the right outcome and decisions for all disabilities
- The forum works in a positive partnership way to effect change
We are currently looking for Parents who are able to spare some time to help organise the Forum’s events and who are willing to attend meetings to represent the views of all Parents and Carers and feedback to the forum any outcomes. This can be as little or as much time as you can spare.
