Forum Dates

We are pleased to share our upcoming events with you. These respond to what you said in our last Areas of Concern (SEND, Health and Social Care) survey.  

Great training opportunity for Derbyshire Parent Carer Voice (DPCV) Forum members

We are delighted to be able to offer free training to develop, train and build our Parent Carer Forum in Derbyshire.

The aim of the training is to make sure that our parent carer representatives:

  • understand the role of the forum as a strategic partner within the local area
  • are equipped and feel confident to represent DPCV at strategic meetings to ensure that children with SEND get the best possible outcomes.

The two virtual sessions are on Monday 29 January and Wednesday 7 February 2024  from 10 am – 12 noon  and delegates must commit to attend both sessions.
