Summer Events

Our summer activities & events newsletter is packed full of helpful tips and ideas for events & activities happening around BANES throughout the summer, we’ve tried to capture as much as possible, but please feel welcome to share other thoughts and ideas in our Facebook chat group https://www.facebook.com/groups/3409350616021236/

And remember that a friendly, supportive chat is only a phonecall or email away – the summer holidays can be difficult, challenging times for SEND families. Our support line, by parents for parents, will remain open throughout the summer holidays. Call on 01761 502 515 or email ">.
