Whilst we are not a support network and we don’t lobby for a particular cause, we are all parents or carers of children with special educational needs and disabilities ourselves and we will use our own experiences and understanding to offer a human touch and be supportive in all of our interactions with our members. We have a clear Code of Conduct (available on our Policies page) and we expect all of our members to sign up to it when they join the forum and adhere to it.
