Sen Talk - Coronavirus

Here are some of the things that Sen Talk are providing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

They have moved their service online, which means that children currently registered with their service are accessing one-to-one support through Zoom with their key workers and mentors. They are happy, however, to take new referrals for families that are struggling and they are running an information and support helpline which parents can call Mon-Friday 10am-3pm for a chat on 07719 304 682.

For families who are not comfortable with/ or whose preference is not to use video calling, they are sending out bespoke resource packages in the post. These can be requested from Aoife Gallagher the Children’s Project Lead by emailing aoife@sentalk.org.

SEN Talk are also running weekly virtual coffee mornings for parents through Zoom and offering a range on online talks.

Please get in touch by emailing the general email info@sentalk.org if you need further information about online events.
