The Barnet Parent Carer Forum (BPCF) is looking for parents of children with special educational needs and disability (SEND) to help tailor advocacy and discussions with decision-makers.

BPCF exists to amplify the voice of families with SEND children in Barnet.

Families that join a supportive network of other families, get regular updates on SEND-related matters in the borough, and the chance to meet other families and directly engage with local services.

Membership is free and involves providing basic family information so BPCF can keep a family stay informed about upcoming events, news and training. Those interested should contact BPCF via their website: https://barnetpcf.org.uk/join-us/
