Hampshire Parent Carer Network Get Togethers

About

Hampshire Parent Carer Network (HPCN) is an organisation working throughout the county. We believe in an inclusive society where everyone shares the same opportunities. Our members are parent carers of children and young people with additional needs aged 0-25 years, associated professionals, and affiliated groups. We support and train parent carer representatives to work alongside the professionals who provide health, education, adult and social services to our children and young adults.

About Hampshire Parent Carer Network

The Hampshire Parent Carer Network is an independent parent-led group set up to ensure that the families and carers of children and young people with disabilities or additional needs can participate fully in the development of services within Hampshire. Their shared mission is to improve and enhance the experiences and opportunities of children and young people with additional needs and/or disability by enabling parents and carers to be heard and be at the heart of decisions, development and delivery of services in Hampshire.

Their volunteer parent representatives sit on a range of boards and decision-making groups, representing the views of families with children/young people (0-25) with disabilities or additional needs. If you are a Hampshire parent carer you are an expert and we want you! If you would like to sit on a workstream, steering group or strategic board discussing education, health, social or leisure services and provisions email participation@hpcn.org.uk. Let them know about your knowledge and interests around special educational needs and/or disability arising from your own lived experience.
