People gathered at a live event in a dimly lit venue with a stage and a screen in the background. The photo shows the backs of two individuals, one with brown hair wearing a white shirt and the other with short hair carrying an orange backpack. The scene includes an audience sitting and standing, with some focusing on the stage. Overlaid text reads, 'This is no longer feeling alone.'

We are both SEN parents - we know what is missing, what we need and what we think others need too.

It doesn’t exist so we’re creating it.

This is the ultimate “bringing together” of SEN parents, carers, family, friends and professionals. To listen, share, support, collaborate and feel a sense of belonging for the first time.

We get it. We get you. We live this life every single day too. Whilst all of our journeys look different, there are some massive similarities that we can share to feel less alone.

We are the North East SEN-collective and we’re so glad you’re here.

Ready to Collaborate?

Send us a quick note if you’d like to chat about collaborating with us. Maybe you already have a community group, charity, product, service in the SEN space - maybe you’d like to start one. Maybe you’d like to volunteer, or maybe you’d like to chuck an idea in the mix for a future event, workshop or programme.

We’re all ears.
