Have your say - join the Parents And Carers Together (PACT) group today!

Aspire are looking for parents and carers to join their forum. The group will meet monthly and help provide feedback on a range of family centred services. These are services aimed at families with children aged 0 to 19 years or up to 25 years of age for those living with special educational needs and disabilities.

There will be a mixture of in person and virtual forums and each will have a theme, which will link to the Island wide Family Hubs and Start For Life offer. During each meeting, the group will discuss relevant services, this will then be fed back to the Isle of Wight Council. The feedback received will help to shape and improve the services that are on offer to families.

Themes to be discussed at the upcoming meet ups include: 

• Play based learning in your home

• SEND support and services

• Digital platforms

• Maternity, Health visiting and Bonding with bump and baby

• Debt and Welfare

• Family hub and family centre accessibility

• Parent-infant relationships

Further information, including dates, times and venues will soon be advertised in the Parent and carer engagments section of the Family information Hub website.

As a thank you for joining PACT, members will receive a family voucher for one free soft play session at Aspire Kingdom Play. Members will also be entered into a raffle and have the chance to win some fantastic prizes.
