What is the SEND Local Offer?

Newcastle’s SEND Local Offer contains all the information, advice and support that children and young people with SEND and their families might need to use. You can find school holiday activities, short breaks, clubs, and groups to join in with. There’s advice and guidance on education, health and care, and a range of issues young people may face.
