South Tyneside Parent Carer Forum is an independent forum led by parents, for parents and carers of children and young people aged 0-25 with additional support needs and disabilities in South Tyneside. We work in partnership with commissioners and service providers across health, social and education services.
The aim of the forum is to enable parents and carers to share their knowledge of what works and what doesn’t work so well; and to help service providers and commissioners focus their efforts on effective, high quality support. We do this by ensuring that family voices are heard by service planners and decision makers. The most important part of what we do is hearing from parent carers and taking that voice forward as a collective to the relevant places.
We also aim to signpost parents to advice and information, to help them through their journey as carers of a disabled child or young person.
