LPCF Consultations

Wheelchair services provided in Lincolnshire

Lincolnshire Integrated Care board (ICB) would like to invite anyone who uses a wheelchair or who cares for someone who does to give their feedback on the current services. The survey seeks to understand what requires improvement, what is working well, if training, further information would be helpful and what an excellent service would look like for the user.

SEND reform: putting children and young people first

SEND White Paper Consultation – Have Your Say

The Government has now published the long-awaited SEND White Paper. This document sets out proposed national changes to how support for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) may be delivered in the future.

At this stage, these are proposals, not immediate changes. There will now be a formal consultation period before any decisions are finalised.

LPCF’s Role

Lincolnshire Parent Carer Forum (LPCF) will be:

Carefully reviewing the proposals

Collecting feedback from Lincolnshire parent carers

Identifying common themes and concerns

Submitting an independent response as your Parent Carer Forum

We will be gathering your views in a number of ways, including:

An online survey

A virtual consultation session

Discussion opportunities

Please Also Respond Directly

While LPCF will submit a formal response as a PCF, we strongly encourage you to respond to the Government consultation yourself as well.

This is your opportunity to share your personal experience and views directly.

This Is Your Chance.

National SEND policy is shaped by consultation feedback. The more families who take part, the stronger the parent voice becomes.

Please make the most of this opportunity to have your say.

Please see here.

Parental and carer requests for EHCPs

Hello, I am Chermain, a fellow University researcher currently conducting my dissertation for my undergraduate degree within Special Educational Needs, Disability and Inclusion.

I am seeking between 20 and 30 volunteers who are over 18 and have submitted an education, health and care plan for their child/young person within the last 5 years to answer a short (less than 30-minute) questionnaire about this process and the reasons behind requesting it.
If you would like to take part, please visit the link below. (Link to Microsoft Forms 365 Questionnaire).
