Speech and Language Therapy Meeting
Friday June 18th 10am to 1pm
Do you want more information about the Services this Department provides?
Would you like the opportunity to question the Service Manager on provision currently provided?
Do you have concerns for your child that you would like answers to?
If so then please come along to this Meeting being held at Barnsley FC’s Legend Suite organised by the Barnsley Parents and Carers Forum along with the Barnsley LINk organisation.
We feel there are lots of parents out there with individual concerns over the level of provision offered to their child and this meeting offer the opportunity to both receive information, have a say and ask questions of the Service.
Please book your place by contacting Sue Brown the LINk worker based at ARENA on (01226) 770023. Alternatively you could email us at info@barnsleypcf.org and we can do that for you. Lunch will be provided.

The Forum's First Quarterly Meeting
Our next event is our first Quarterly Meeting and is scheduled to take place on 23rd September, 2009. The venue is the same as our last event:
Barnsley Football Club
Registration/Tea/Coffee is from 10.30am. The Meeting is scheduled to start at 11.00am and finish at 1.00pm. A Buffet Lunch is included afterward. Creche provision has been arranged for young ones.
Family Fun Day
We hope to be arranging a family fun day in the near future which will be a less formal event than the last one. Our intention is to inform as many of our interested families as we can of our progress in setting up the forum, whilst making it an interesting and fun day for children and parents alike!
We are also keenly interested in hearing more of the ideas and concerns of all who attend, as these get-togethers are the beginnings of the 'voice' that the government has asked us to 'raise' to help improve the service provision we are all entitled to.
Please register your interest to be informed when the event will take place
