Introduce yourself and welcome new members!

Hello!

Hello I'm really pleased to join the SEND Network and connect with others who are committed to improving outcomes for children and young people with SEND. I bring over 15 years of experience in strategic SEND leadership, with a focus on preparing for adulthood, inclusive practice, and system improvement. I'm now working independently, supporting local authorities, schools, organisations and parents/carers through training, consultancy, and project work. I'm looking forward to learning from others, sharing ideas, and contributing to the collective effort to make SEND systems more inclusive and effective. Eva
