My Voice Counts Youth Network Flyer pdf

The Milton Keynes SEND Youth Network builds on the work of the previous SEND Youth Council, My Voice Counts. The network provides opportunities for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) to share their experiences, views and ideas, helping to shape services, influence decisions and improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND across Milton Keynes.

The SEND Youth Network works in partnership with local organisations and decision-makers to ensure the voices of children and young people are heard and valued. Through participation and co-production, young people can help develop services, identify priorities and contribute to meaningful change.
