About this event

Charity & Causes • Other

Join us for a 90-minute online session designed specifically for parent carers of children with complex care needs and wider SEND.


The webinar includes:

  • 1 hour guidance on Education, Health & Care Plans (EHCPs)
  • Followed by a 30-minute live Q&A to answer your questions and offer practical guidance


ℹ️ Important note: This session focuses on the EHCP process in England and provides general guidance; it isn’t individual legal advice.


During the session, we’ll cover:

  • What is an EHCP and who is it for
  • Who can apply and the criteria for assessment
  • How to apply and practical tips to strengthen your application and reflect your child's needs accurately
  • What to do if things don’t go to plan
  • Signposting to further support


You’ll also have the chance to connect with other parent carers and ask questions in a supportive, understanding space.


🎯 Who is it for? This webinar centres the needs of parent carers of children with Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities (PMLD), and complex needs. We welcome registrations from parent carers of children with other disabilities.
