Dear parents and carers,
We are pleased to share the key documents from the Hackney SEND Parent Carer Forum (HSPCF) Review & Planning Meeting held in 19th January 2026. These documents are being published to ensure openness, transparency, and to keep parent carers informed about the work of the Forum and local SEND developments.
The meeting focused on reflecting on the Forum’s work over the past year, sharing parent carer experiences, and discussing priorities for the year ahead, including education, health, wellbeing, transport, short breaks, and preparing for adulthood.
Please find the following documents available to download:
- HSPCF Annual Review & Planning Meeting Minutes
A detailed record of the discussions, feedback from parent carers, key themes raised, and agreed next steps. - Presentation Slides (Review & Looking Ahead)
Slides presented by the Steering Group, outlining the Forum’s role, activities, engagement with the local authority, and future focus areas. - Local Area SEND Inspection Report
The published inspection report, referenced during the meeting.
These documents are shared so that all parent carers—whether or not you were able to attend—can stay informed and engaged with the Forum’s work and contribute to shaping SEND services in Hackney.
If you have feedback, questions, or would like to get involved in future discussions or activities, please contact us at info@hspcf.org or info@hackneycarers.org.uk
Thank you for being part of our parent carer community and for helping to strengthen the collective voice of families of children and young people with SEND.
Warm regards,
Hackney SEND Parent Carer Forum (HSPCF)
