On February 23rd 2026 the Government launched a consultation on proposals for reforming support for children and young people.
The consultation closes on 18th May 2026.The National Network of Parent Carer Forums has been actively feeding back throughout the process.
Here at Gloucestershire Parent Carer Forum we’re partnering with SENDIASS Gloucestershire to deliver sessions in person and virtually for any parent carer to attend FREE.
These sessions are an opportunity to hear how the changes may affect your child or young person, share your thoughts, and find out how you can give feedback
