Trafford Parents Forum

Being the parent or carer of a child with special needs can be a lonely, demanding and frustrating experience.

We believe it is vital that parents and carers have a voice about their child’s education, health and social care.  The Parents Forum works in partnership with parents and professionals in the key areas that affect us and our children.

As well as the ‘big’ stuff, the forum also provides advice and support for parents…. From a cup of coffee, the opportunity to meet other parents, leaflets and information to invitations to training events and conferences.
