Opening times over Christmas

0

Christmas can be a difficult time for some families – and it can be hard to know who to contact over the festive period if you are in need of some advice, support or information. The Southampton SENDIASS helpline remains open 9am-5pm on weekdays except for Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day (UK Bank Holidays).

For emergencies outside our opening times: please contact Southampton City Council’s Out of Hours Service: Call 023 8023 3344. Or visit their website for more information: https://www.southampton.gov.uk/contact-us/emergency-out-of-hours.aspx

We’ve also produced an information sheet containing alternative contact numbers of other organisations that can provide information, support and advice, plus some top tips for managing over Christmas. You can view and download our information sheet here:

Disability Awareness – FREE Training

0

Southampton City Council is funding the Rose Road Association to provide free disability awareness training sessions for Southampton activity providers or facility providers. Sessions will be co-produced and delivered by parents of young people with disabilities. 

Each two hour session focuses either on General Awareness, Learning Disability or Autism.

Each course is for 15 people and is perfect for mainstream or specialist activity/facility providers who want to better support users with disabilities and understand a parent/carer’s perspective.

If you are a parent who uses a provider who you think might be interested please do pass this information on.
