Warrington parents and carers

WarrPAC are a warm and welcoming group of volunteers, each with lived experience of caring for a child or young person with disabilities and additional needs. We can help by signposting families to the right services and sharing a wealth of information, whether your child has a diagnosis, or you are just starting to look for information. We run sessions and events where parents can chat and share knowledge and experiences with other families in similar situations. WarrPAC listen to families to find out what is important to them and take their views to those who plan and provide services in Warrington, working in partnership to help improve the quality of life for our children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities.
