Our guide to what's on over the school summer holidays for children and young people with SEND is now available here.

The Local Authority booklet on playschemes can be found here. 

Contents include information about sports and local leisure activities, days out including London and local zoos and museums and schemes aimed at teenagers.

Please note that this guide relates to externally provided activities and schemes and inclusion in our guide should not be taken as endorsement by Our Voice of any particular scheme, venue or activity. Information is up to date and accurate to the best of our knowledge, but please do check in advance with individual providers before you go. 

Not all activities will be suitable for all children/young people, so please do talk to individual providers about whether they can meet your child/young person's individual needs.
