Welcome to the Families in Partnership Newsletter for January 2026 - supporting families with SEND

Published
This newsletter shares the latest updates, news and developments in and around the county. We are covering topics you tell us are important.

In this first issue of 2026, we would like to wish you and your family a Happy New Year.

In this issue the SEND and Inclusion Local Area Partnership (SILAP) expresses thanks to all who took part in the Annual Parent Carer Survey, which closed in December.  There is also information on money and finance (especially handy after the holidays) and for those thinking about Higher Education, we have information on Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA). National Storytelling Week begins on 31 January and Gloucestershire Libraries extend an inclusive welcome to enjoy all they have to offer.

If you’re reading this January newsletter for the first time, we hope you find it useful.  If there is a change we should make; or if you would like something to be featured; or if you have any questions then please email us - familiesinpartnership@gloucestershire.gov.uk 

You can subscribe  to receive the next FIP newsletter as soon as it's published. You may even see your suggestion in the next edition!
