💚 Our November SENsitivity Meeting 💚

We're really looking forward to welcoming ⭐Daniel Carlin from Calming Pathways to Potential⭐ to our next meeting on Friday 13th November!

Daniel is an ADHD Coach & Mentor and will be joining us for an informal, informative chat about ADHD, sharing his knowledge, experiences and practical tips to help us better understand and support our children.

We'll be chatting about:
🧠 Understanding ADHD and how it affects everyday life
💚 Practical strategies and support
🌟 Recognising strengths as well as challenges
🤝 Creating more understanding and supportive environments.

**But don't forget, SENsitivity isn't just about ADHD!**

We're a friendly, informal group for parents and carers of children with **all Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)**. Whether your child has a diagnosis, is waiting for an assessment, or you're still trying to work out where to start, you're very welcome.

It's a chance to get together, have a cuppa, chat to people who just *get it*, share experiences, offload about the difficult days and celebrate the little (and big!) wins.

No judgement, no pressure and absolutely no need to know anyone before you come along. We're all in this together! 💚

📅 **Friday 13th November**
⏰ **6.30pm**
📍 **Branston Golf & Country Club**

Please share with anyone you think might like to come. We'd love to see you there!

SUCCESS 🙌

HUGE thank you to those of you who joined us at our first soft play meet this evening. It was so lovely to meet so many new people and have a good catch up with our regulars! I know some of you overcame some big nerves to join us, so well done and thank you! I hope you've seen we really aren't scary and everyone is super cool 😎 😂

I will be organising another one, so keep an eye on the page and I will keep you updated.

In the meantime if you need any help with anything, we are here 💛💙

Evening!

My fellow group leader and I are going to be going to the Inclusive Session at the Meadowside Leisure Centres soft play on Friday 25th September.

We wanted to put it out there for anyone to join us, as we know childcare can be difficult, and this way you can come and be around others who "get it," without having to worry about leaving your children.

Entry is just £2.75 a session, and the time is 5.15 till 7pm.

If you're interested, I can help with how to book, or anything else you need to know.

Let me know if you fancy coming along ☺️

Louise 💛💙

I hope everyone's back to school week has been a good one!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us tonight at SENsitivity. It was lovely to meet some new faces and just as lovely to catch up with familiar ones.

I hope we were able to offer a little support, advice, reassurance and friendship to those who needed it. Sometimes just being in a room with people who understand can make all the difference.

Thank you all for making it such a welcoming and supportive evening. We look forward to seeing you again soon

💬 I’m currently doing some research for a local primary school, and I’d really value some input from parents and carers of children with additional needs. 💙💛

The school is hoping to begin holding support sessions for parents and carers of SEND children, and we would love to know what topics or areas of support would be most helpful for families.

What are the biggest challenges you’ve faced, or what do you wish schools and services understood better?

Are there any areas you feel parents need more help, guidance, or information with? For example:

✨ Navigating the Local Authority (LA)
✨ EHCPs and school support
✨ Communication with schools
✨ Autism / ADHD assessments
✨ Friendships and socialising
✨ Emotional regulation and behaviour support
✨ Support available for parents and carers
✨ Respite support and short breaks
✨ Finding and using PAs (Personal Assistants)
✨ Clubs, activities, and inclusion
✨ Mental health and burnout as a parent
✨ Financial help, grants, or benefits
✨ Transitioning between schools or year groups

I’d also love to hear what has helped you most, what hasn’t worked, and what you feel would make the biggest difference to families locally.

Please feel free to comment below or message privately if you’d prefer. Your experiences and ideas could really help shape meaningful support for parents in our community. 💙 Thanks, Frances Bell

Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns. We are always happy to help!
