Additional Needs Advice
Choice Wellbeing Service CIC

Choice Wellbeing Service was established in February 2023, to support the mental health and wellbeing parent carers across the Northeast area. We are fully aware, being parent carers, working within SEND and being mental health practitioners ourselves, where the gaps in Sunderland/South Tyneside are when it comes to the care of the individuals who are caring for children with additional needs. We are aware that quite often individuals who receive a diagnosis of additional need for their children have no idea where to start, what their entitlements are, or if they are even accessing the correct service or provision. This then creates issues for the individuals in the caring role, impacting their mental health in the long term, then unfortunately, possibly impacting the child.
