‘Children need their needs met. When their needs are met, we see them thrive’

In our special Woman’s Hour from the BBC Radio Theatre, @BBCNuala looked at support for kids with Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND) in England & the mums trying to access it for them ⬇️

[BBC Woman's Hour @BBCWomansHour]

Exclusive Woman’s Hour poll: 73% of mothers of children with SEND think the SEND system is broken.

We commissioned a survey of 1,000 mums across the UK who have one or more children with SEND.

58% told us they gave up work or cut their hours to support their child ⬇️

Want to understand why over 40% of #ParentCarers have thought about suicide?

On the latest episode of Care Fully Considered, I break it down & talk with hosts @WillowKaty @Corner_Eighteen about the support needed for disabled children & their families.

A final thought: however difficult the last few days have been, it simply doesn’t compare to having to flee your home from persecution or war to seek refuge in a land far away. It’s heartwarming to have seen the empathy towards their plight from so many of you. 3/4
