Parent Drop-ins in Downham

As part of the Parent Empowerment Project, these monthly drop-in sessions offer a chance to meet an advocate from Social Inclusion Recovery Group (SIRG) for support in navigating your child’s education journey.

Support includes:

• school applications, admissions, and exclusions,
• SEN provision and referrals,
• appeals and complaints processes,
• signposting to Family Hub and wider borough services,
• raising awareness of the support available to Global Majority families.

To access support, visit the Downham Family Hub at Downderry Primary School between 10 am and 4 pm on one of the available dates:

28th November 2025
26th March 2026

The Parent Drop-ins take place every month at various Family Hubs in Lewisham. Visit the PEP's organiser profile for more upcoming events.
