There are ten days to go until the Contact Awards 2025 final ceremony, taking place at the Palace of Westminster in London.
We’ve been introducing you to some of our finalists. And today we’re shining a spotlight on one of the final three in our Change Maker category, for an individual or group who work together to make life better for other families with disabled children in their community.
That’s certainly what Warrington parent carer forum (WarrPAc) do. Many parent carer forums received nominations for our awards, highlighting the vital work they do in their local areas. As the government’s parent carer participation delivery partner, supporting this work is very important to us, so we are delighted that our judging panel has chosen of these nominations to go through to the final.
WarrPAc was nominated by their Chair Jean, who said:
“Despite busy lives and full-time jobs, this team give up their limited spare time to support local families navigating the SEND system in England. They also lead collaboration across eight other forums in Cheshire and Merseyside.
“When I stepped back after a medical diagnosis, the team, my team, stepped up without hesitation – offering personal, emotional, and professional support.
“Passionate and selfless, they work tirelessly for others and truly deserve recognition for their commitment to the SEND community.”
Good luck WarrPAc!
