Coventry and Warwickshire services
Through our centres we support families with children and young people aged 0-19 and up to age 25 with special educational needs and disabilities. Our aim is to improve the outcomes and life chances for them and their families.
Families can access free, high quality inclusive groups that are geared towards promoting early play, learning and development. Each District will also offer other tailored groups to meet the needs of their community.
We also work with a number of partners that support children, young people, parents and carers to deliver services out of our Centres.
We operate across North Warwickshire, Nuneaton, Rugby, Stratford and Warwick from our designated centres and community venues. We also offer virtual support, support over the phone and out in the community.
We offer a varied timetable of activities, as well as one-to-one support and advice on a range of topics. We can also signpost you to another organisation that may be able to help, so it is always worth getting in touch with your local team.
Our activities and support on offer can vary between the different centres, so please refer to the timetable for each area.
All of our activities are free, parent and carer contributions are always welcome.
