Company activities and impact

As a Community Interest Company, We Are Able CIC is dedicated to activities that significantly benefit the community, particularly families with children and young adults with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). During the financial year, our organisation has worked tirelessly to support these families in various impactful ways. Our activities include hosting workshops within the local community that provide essential information, guidance, and resources related to SEND. These workshops aim to empower parents and carers with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate the complexities of the SEND educational system. In addition to workshops, we offer hands-on support with tasks that many families find challenging and time-consuming. This includes advocating on behalf of parents during mediation and tribunals, assisting with requests for Educational Health Care Needs Assessments (EHCNAs), and facilitating constructive communication between parents and local schools among many more factors that parents face under the SEND umbrella. Collaboration with other organisations has been a significant success in enabling the families we support to achieve the best possible outcomes for their children’s education. Working alongside other service providers has allowed We Are Able CIC clients to access additional resources, such as counselling services and food banks, ensuring that families receive holistic and comprehensive support.
