Welcome to SENDA,

We are a registered Charitable Organization based in County Durham (Reg No. 1187028)
SENDA is a rights-based organization created by parents, for parents.

We aim to support young people who have SEND (special educational needs and/or disabilities) and their families by the provision of services to enable each person to obtain their full rights and privileges, particularly through the provision of advocacy and advice for such persons

You can see our offer and team using the tabs on the top of this page.

We cover residents of Darlington and Durham.

COVID 19

in light of the recent public health guidelines the Board of Trustees agreed that we reduce our services from the 12th March onwards.

We will no longer be making home visits and reducing face to face contact.

We will continue to provide online and phone support with our clients, and attend safeguarding and professional meetings.

We feel our work is necessary and important, but so is the wellbeing of our clients, our workforce, and the wider community. If you have any recommendations for improving our online offer, please contact us using the link available on this website.
