There are a number of websites that offer support and information to parents of children with Special Needs. These are a selection from local and national organisations that our parents have found useful. If you can recommend other sites we will be happy to add these to this page.
Club 4: Club4 is an exclusive offer for children and young people who are eligible for benefit-related free school meals in Surrey. For the summer holidays, all eligible children at school in Surrey have the chance to secure a free place at one of 140 day camps running across the County. Some camps are commercially run and open to all, while others are exclusive to Club4 families. Dates and timings vary but all camps offer a mix of entertainment to keep young people safely entertained and active, as well as providing them with one or more quality meals. To find a camp near you and see what else is on offer with the Club4 programme, please visit the Club4 website: https://www.surreycc.gov.uk/club4holidayoffer
