Welcome to our page – Introducing the Young Person’s Network (YPN)!
On this page you will find:
“Who are we?”
The YPN is a growing network (a bit like a Facebook group) of young people who want to have their say to help shape the services and support provided in Suffolk for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
There is also a group called the Multi-Schools Council who work in schools to raise the voice of children and young people.
You can find out more about it here.
