Meet the Steering Group
We’re a group of parent carers of children and young people with a range of special educational needs and disabilities. We’re all volunteers who want to improve the everyday experiences of our children and young people in Devon
I’m mum to four lovely kids – two have SEND. I’ve lived in Devon since 2011 and love this beautiful part of the world. I believe that involving parents in decision making is key to successfully improving things for our children and young people.
I moved to Devon in 2014 and have two boys with SEND. I want to help improve services for all families. I’m passionate about the difference receiving quality support at the right time makes.
I moved to Devon 2008 and I’m now a mum of SEND twins. I hope to be part of the cohesive communications between SEND parents and Local Government policymakers generating an uplift in quality of life for all SEND families.
I’m mum to 3 I have a daughter and 2 boys who both have SEND.

I’m mum to 3 children, one with SEND. Through my daughter I have over a decade of experience of several different areas of Devon’s SEND services, in both mainstream and special schools, but the area I feel most strongly about is language and communication support.
I am a parent carer to a 12 year old Deafblind girl who attends mainstream school. I have helped to influence services on offer for SEND children in Devon for nearly 10 years. I am bringing my training expertise to the Steering Group and hope to make sure our experiences are listened to, heard, understood and acted on.
I moved to Devon sixteen years ago. I have two young People age 25 and 13. Both have additional needs. I am looking forward to working with the Forum for the greater good.
I live with my awesome partner and our two wonderful boys, we all live with ASC.
My passion is to help support all children and their families.
