For your Families - NPCF Conference 2026:

Hello,

We have some very exciting news! On the 10th of November this year we are hosting our Conference 'Navigating SEND together...Building Understanding' for parent carers in Northumberland. This event brings together SEND experts and professionals across multiple agencies including health & social care, education and our own SEND network of providers - plus Irwin Mitchell will be there giving free legal advice.

The day will be split into talks & workshops and a market hall where you can speak to agencies directly. We will be releasing exactly who will be there closer to the time but for now, save the date!

We have made it our mission to help as many of you get there as possible, Irwin Mitchell are very generously funding free transport for those who may need it, which can be requested here. We also have a dedicated wellbeing area and refreshments & lunch will be provided. The whole event is funded, you do not need to book and you can drop in anytime between 9:30am and 2:30pm. You can follow the event announcements on our website or Facebook event page.

If you have any access requirements, or need to ask any questions please do not hesitate to reach out - [email protected].

Warm wishes,

Ella (She/Her)
Forum Support Officer

Continuing our efforts to be as eco-friendly (and cost efficient!) as possible. Our stamps are reusable for making lots and lots of badges and our badges themselves are made from wood.

💚 All ready for our School and Eco Councils 💚

Heather from Forum Books:

"We have the amazing Amanda Owen popping into the shop on 26th October at 2pm and we would love get as many local children as possible to along.

Perfect for the children that love all things animals and if like me you are a child of the 1990s Animal Ark, James Herriot and any of pony club book that kind of child!

Amanda will be meeting the public and signing copies of her book".
