Family Voice
Family Voice Norfolk is the parent carer forum for Norfolk. They work with (not for) the local authority, health and social services to improve services for children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and their families.
They are not a support or information service, but communication is key to what they do. They listen to the experiences and wishes of families and make sure that those views are heard by those providing services, so that they can be part of every stage of planning and decision-making. Wherever possible, they aim to work in co-production.
