About the Practice
When the EHCP process starts to feel like a wall of forms, deadlines and official language, Liverpool families need somewhere calm to begin. Barnardo’s Liverpool and Knowsley SENDIASS helps Liverpool parents understand the SEN and EHCP process before a meeting, refusal letter or tribunal deadline takes over the whole house. The work is about turning fear and scattered evidence into a clearer plan for school, the local authority and the next decision point.
