Our regular coffee mornings and evening meetings are informal and relaxed. We often invite guest speakers from education, health and early years to talk to parents about local SEND services and answer their questions. Even if a particular guest speaker does not interest you, there is always time for a chat and a hot drink at every meeting. Children are also welcome to attend. There is no pressure to come regularly or even stay for the whole session as we know that your free time can be limited and unpredictable. Events We run workshops and training events for parents on a wide range of SEND-related issues. As well as gaining expertise and insight, you will be supported by other parent carer trainers who may have lived through the stage of your ‘journey’ and who will have knowledge and information to share with you that could be really beneficial. We also organise information days which give parents, carers and young people the chance to meet local services and providers. Partnership working We work closely with Brent Council, health providers, schools and other organisations to help design and deliver local services that meet the needs of children and young people with SEND. We regularly attend their meetings and committees to feedback the views and experiences of our members. Parent carers can help to highlight problems that are frequently experienced by families of children with additional needs, and this knowledge is useful to help professionals make informed choices about local services. Evidence shows that this sort of active participation leads to improved service provision, take up and ultimately better outcomes for children and young people with SEND. WHO WE ARE The forum is an independent, parent-led organisation that helps bring together parents and carers of children and young people aged 0-25 with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in Brent. We help and support families of children with SEND by providing information, advice and a listening ear. By gathering ideas and feedback from our members, we also work closely with local organisations to positively improve the planning and delivery of services in Brent for children and young people with additional needs and disabilities. Set up in 2017, our forum is run by a friendly group of volunteers who are all parent carers and understand the issues and challenges that looking after a child with SEND can bring.

About I became interested in holistic and complementary therapies in 1994 after I was invited to an aromatherapy party. I didn't have a clue what aromatherapy was! I had been suffering with eczema on my hands for 14 years. I had tried wearing cotton gloves and plastic gloves and I had used all the steroid creams available. Nothing worked and I was told to live with it. At the party I bought a Tea Tree Oil cream and some Seaweed Bubble Bath and was told this will help. Even though I thought -"rubbish"- I figured I had nothing to lose, so every night I soaked my hands in a bowl of seaweed bath water, and piled on the cream.....and in 3 months my eczema was gone..... ....AND I WAS HOOKED, SO I DECIDED TO GET QUALIFIED..... I have been passionate since then, and have trained in many forms of massage, reflexology, reiki, aromatherapy and stress management. As well as attending many seminars, workshops and conferences. I became Committee Secretary for the Federation Of Small Businesses Arun and District Branch in 2002 and I was their Chairman and representative for 3 years from 2009. I attended National Conference in Newport and Scarborough and had meetings with many Councillors and MP's In May 2011, I became Manager of the Arundel and Littlehampton branch of Mumpreneurs Networking Club and left after 4 years and now I am the Coordinator of the Federation of Holistic Therapists Worthing Local Support Group and Ambassador for the FHT (Federation Of Holistic Therapists)

Become a licensed Mind Tools For Kids Coach! Join our teamWelcome to Mind Tools for Kids! My name is Emily Harbrecht and I am the MTFK founder and Head Coach and Trainer. I am a mum, wife, daughter and friend with an absolute passion for helping people to realise their full potential. Over the past 8 years, I have worked with hundreds of people on their confidence and self-belief. Then after becoming a parent, I had a light bulb moment and realised that by working with children I would change the future of their adult life. I now pour my passion, energy and skill into working with parents and their extraordinary children – tomorrow’s trailblazers! I founded Mind Tools for Kids as I wanted to create a safe, accessible space for parents and their children to get the help, support and expertise they need. Every child deserves happiness, confidence and self-belief. The tools and strategies are simple, fun, easy to learn and more importantly they work! I love to see the transformation in the families I work with. I have won awards for my work, supported the world-renowned Paul McKenna and have made it my mission to continually learn, challenge and develop myself. I am a qualified NLP Trainer and Coach. I have trained with the best, completing many hundreds of hours’ study in Neuro Linguistic Programming. I am a certified Empowering Learning Coach and have also completed training in Hypnosis, Time Line Therapy, Coaching, Psycho-Neuro Immunology and Mindfulness techniques. My greatest learnings and discoveries in my life have definitely come from being a parent. Nothing could prepare me for the rollercoaster of absolute love, joy, concern, guilt and worry that comes from being a mum. It can be exhausting! When I am not busy juggling coaching and life, I can be found knee deep in glitter, eating something yummy or watching Harry Potter with my daughter! It’s great to connect with you! Emily x
