At SEN Parent Support Group, we are a dedicated community created by parents, for parents. Our mission is to provide a safe, welcoming space for families navigating the challenges of Special Educational Needs (SEN). Whether you’re at the start of your journey or looking for ongoing guidance, we’re here to empower you with the tools, knowledge, and support you need to advocate for your child confidently.
With over 20,000 members, we’ve built a thriving community focused on peer-to-peer support, real-life advice, and practical resources. Our services include step-by-step guides, template letters, EHCP reviews, and access to a growing network of trusted professionals—all designed to help you navigate the SEND process with clarity and confidence.
Together, we’re stronger. Join us as we work to ensure that no family has to face the SEND journey alone.
Having only just joined this group I can already see it's going to be crucial to me in supporting my children, The knowledge, Understanding and empathy is absolutely amazing and I would urge anyone dealing with SEN to join.
I always say to other SEND parents "You don't know what you don't know" Well this group is the place where you found out what to know, what to ask for & how to get things done! It's been a game changer for me.
This group has helped me feel not so alone on this journey and admins are very helpful and kind. The templates are a big help too!! Thank you.
Personally feel much more assertive and empowered than I did at the beginning of this journey with the help from this group, the files, the guidance, the template letter and ongoing support and endless hours admins put in to make sure that's all readily available when we need it and kindness when things just feel too much, so a huge thank you and appreciation to the SEN PSG family.
