We represent the whole community and all ar as of SEND from Dyslexia, ADHD and Autism to Profound and Multiple Disabilities. If you are a Parent Carer of a child with any additional needs, whether they are diagnosed o not, you are welcome to become a member of the forum Contact | Bedford Borough Parent Carer Forum (bbpcf.co.uk). As a member we need to hear about how local services are working for your child and any issues you encounter, we need feedback on lived experiences. We then pick up any themes and feed this back at the various meetings we attend with all of the local services. We can also signpost Parent Carers to services who help support them. We also provide free training for parent carers on a huge variety of subjects to empower you as a parent carer and we arrange regular get togethers with local services to discuss what the services offer and to enable parents to talk directly to them and ask any questions they may have. We always arrange these get togethers and training based on r cent feedback from parent carers and what they are telling us are their burning issues. BBPCF run an annual survey for our members and most recently had over 500 responses from Parent Carers in Bedford Borough. The survey covers all of the areas of support children with SEND should receive and we find out what is and isn’t working at the moment based on lived experiences. The results of the Annual Survey that we carried out at the end of 2021 have now been published as an ‘Outcomes Report’ and hightlights the current main areas of concern and it forms what we will be prioritising for the year ahead. You can see a copy of our Outcomes Report 2021 on our website www.bbpcf. co.uk/reports ‘Thank you for all your support, Bedford Borough Parent Carer Forum have really help me understand what is happening and wher to get the right support.’ parent carer ‘My main positive is our Parent Carer Forum and how well they connect with everyone.’ professional egular Coffee Mornings, events and training parents to come along, give their views, meet nts and to empower your to advocate for your ou would like to find out more or become a r please contact us or complete our online p form by scanning this QR code or using this e voice for Par nt Car rs f childr n & young people 0h Special Educational Need or Disabilities in Bedford We feed back your views to Education, Health, Social nd other departments t at provide SEND services. re p ssionate about ving services for our en & young people, ve all had different riences so we need hear your views. communications@bbpcf.org.uk www. bbpcf.org.uk 07943 524553
