Please join Essex County Council and Essex Family Forum, the independent Parent Carer Forum for Essex, for an information session on the SEND reforms. This webinar is for parents and carers who live within the geographic boundaries of Essex County Council (excluding Southend and Thurrock residents).

There will also be a Q&A session, where questions can be submitted via the webinar Q&A function.
