Suffolk welcoming places
Children and young people with SEND and their families have told us they want to feel safe, welcome and included within their local communities.
They have also given us a list of actions you can take to help them:
- Staff say hello and smile
- Make it clear who to speak to if there's a problem or you have a question on a worry
- Show me around in person (or via an interactive video)
- Having a buddy or someone to show me / be able to give me time
- Helping me when there are large groups or crowds
- Have a clear set of rules and expectations for your venue on display
- Help me to listen properly to instructions
With this in mind, we have started building a map of places young people have visited and told us about their positive experiences.
If you'd like to tell us about a place you've visited, please complete this form.
These places have not been vetted by Suffolk County Council staff and are the personal opinion of young people we have made contact with through our SEND Young Person’s Network groups at colleges and schools in Suffolk. This information was gathered over the past year (22/23)
