SEND Youth Forum

The Oxfordshire Youth Forum is a new way for young people who have special educational needs to express their opinions, influence decisions, and create change.

Take Action: If you have questions about the youth forum or if you feel you could contribute in anyway, you can email SENDYoungPeople@oxfordshire.gov.uk 

What's the purpose of the forum?

The purpose of the forum is to:

• Improve the system and provide more assistance
• Show what young people can accomplish if we assist them
• Create opportunities to share stories, opinions, and preferences 
• Listen to their real-life experiences 
• Highlight the good work people are doing
• Form friendships and have an impact

Who can join the forum?

The forum is open to any young person who has a lived experience of SEND. 

How often will we meet? 

The Youth Forum meets bi-monthly in the centre of Oxford. 

How can I join? 

If you are interested and have something to offer, send an email to SENDYoungPeople@oxfordshire.gov.uk and tell us about your potential contribution.
