Contact Lambeth offers information, advice and support with issues such as:
Understanding your child’s condition and circumstances
navigating the SEND system
workshops, coffee mornings and signposting to forums and Local Authority events
drop-ins
regular communication bulletins.
Family Support and Outreach
We offer additional support and empower parents and carers who require emotional and practical support via face-to-face, individual and group sessions, telephone, email and regular communication bulletins.
This will ensure families with children and young people with SEND are aware of their rights and entitlements and how to access support services available in Lambeth.
