Solihull Parent Carer Voice
@solihullpcv.bsky.social
We are independent parent carers working together to raise awareness and improve outcomes for all children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND 0-25).
Our children and young people with additional needs are different, BUT all children are different.
Please, in 2025 and beyond, let's strive to ensure that the language we use is empowering and not stigmatising.
