The East Riding of Yorkshire Council and its partners would welcome the views of parents and carers who have accessed Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) services for their children and young people aged 0-25 who have an East Riding address. They have asked if you can complete a separate survey for each child or young person you have with SEND. Your answers should reflect experiences you have had over the last 12 months only.

The survey which can be accessed via the QR code on the letter attached below, focuses on services for education, health, social care and the voluntary sector and has been developed in partnership with colleagues from these services, including the East Yorkshire Parent Carer Forum (EYPCF).

To ensure they continue to take into consideration the views of parents and carers, this survey will be carried out every year.

For a chance of winning either a 1x£50 Amazon voucher or one of 5x£20 amazon vouchers, please complete the survey by the 30 September 2022 and you will be entered into their prize draw!

A winner will be picked at random and contacted by email or telephone before the 31 October 2022 to confirm their prize. To enter, you will need to provide either an email address or telephone number so that we can contact you about the prize if you are successful. All personal details will be destroyed after the prize winners have been contacted.

The survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete, depending on the number of services you have accessed. You can skip any of the questions, should you wish further information.  The survey can be made available in other languages or formats if required. To request another format, please contact them at:
