SEND Champions
SEND Network organisation members are asked to nominate a SEND Champion to:
- attend relevant SEND events or meetings
- share information and co-production/engagement opportunities with their families
- raise awareness of the local SEND system within their service/organisation
- represent the collective voice of their organisation/families, particularly if families don't take part in activities directly
- attend termly SEND Network meetings and share updates about their service with other network members
A training and support plan is being developed for SEND Champions. This will provide:
- knowledge of statutory requirements and SEND processes, including Education Health and Care Plans (EHCPs)

- where to find information advice and guidance on the Southend SEND system including using the Southend SEND Local Offer
