What we do for families & young people with SEND
Family Action is one of the largest UK providers of SENDIAS services. These statutory, free, independent services are designed to help young people and families navigate the health, social care and education systems and advocate for the right support at the right time.
As well as SENDIASS, we provide flexible and bespoke support for schools through our Behaviour Outreach programme and early support in the community for families with concerns about neurodevelopmental support needs. These services help schools and families support their children and young people through training courses, peer support, information and signposting.
FamilyLine is open Monday-Friday for any adult member of the family who needs emotional support, because we know how tough things can be for families often battling to get childrens’ needs met.
Support our work in special educational needs & disabilities
We don’t think it’s right that so many children and young people face a postcode lottery and huge waiting lists to get access to the support they need to access education. If you feel the same, you can help by choosing to donate, volunteer, partner with us as an organisation or commission our services.
