The Disabled Children’s Partnership has recently launched a SEND Needs in Your Constituency tool.

This brings together local data to show the scale of the challenge across England.

You can see the data looks like in the constituencies of some of the political decision-makers involved in shaping SEND reform. Behind every statistic are disabled children and families who are too often left fighting for the support they need.

Now it’s your turn to make sure your MP sees the evidence.

Explore the data for your constituency and send it to your MP, asking them to become a Disabled Children’s Champion and help ensure SEND reforms deliver real change.

Try the your constituency tool now

Every disabled child deserves the chance to learn, make friends and belong. Wherever they live.
