Parents working to make change for children with needs in County Durham
"Making Changes Together Durham" is a group of parents and carers of children within County Durham whom are working alongside the Local Authority with the support of Contact a Family to help bring change to the way services are accessed and improved.
The group was formed following on from the DCSF launch of (ECM) Every Child Matters Agenda, under Health and well-being the (AHDC) Aiming High for Disabled Children campaign and the (EDCM) Every Disabled Child Matters Campaign.
Parents are currently working with professionals as part of working groups including Early Years, Short Breaks, Information Sharing, Transport, Therapies, Lead Professional and Transition. New working groups are also under review.
The Steering Group welcomes participation from parents, grandparents, carers and professionals, anyone who is involved in the life of a child with additional needs in County Durham.
