What services are available for children with disabilities?
Sefton Social Services has one Children with Disabilities team, which covers the whole of the Borough. The team can provide and arrange social services for children with a disability and their families via a social work assessment of need. New initiatives are always being developed to improve services for children with disabilities and we currently have a range of ‘in-house’ provision, including a resource centre for children with special needs, Saturday clubs, holiday play schemes and a teen club. Sefton also has its own children with disabilities register/data-base.
