Supporting Shropshire SEND Families to be Heard

24/07/2025

PACC were recently approached by BBC Midlands to ask if we could put them in contact with a SEND family who would be willing to speak about how the proposed Welfare reforms might impact them.  We were really grateful that Jess Young and her Mum Haley agreed to speak on camera supported by Sarah Thomas from PACC.

Jess and Haley spoke about the importance of people who make decision in the Government really understanding the lives of young people with disabilities and how the decisions they make will impact them.  Sarah highlight the importance of making sure that clear and accessible information was made available for the SEND Community about any proposed changes.
