These objects are captured more succinctly in our mission slalement". "to empower, inform and support parents and families of children and young people with spe¢i81 educational needs and disabilities in West Sussex.. Revlew of the Year 2024-25 was a record year for the number of families we were able lo provide with direct, in-person support. Over 3,000 families benefited from training, benefits advice, ND support, befriending, support groups and short-lerm case work. Countless more accessed our information resources or joined our Facebook group. The advent of our ND Navigation Service designed to support parents of children and young people waiting on assessment for ADHD and Autism had a great deal to do with the increase in the scale of our provision over 500 families supported in its first fLJII year. Given the setvice focusses on helping families access support whilst they wait for assessment, it inevitably led to in-house referrals to OLJr training provision, peer support and benefits advice. As a result more than 60°k of parents are now engaging with our services in multiple ways. The trustees are particularly pleased by this varied support as it greater benefits parents and more broadly, vindicates our strategy of building a one stop shop of complimentary services. New investment in our Benefits Advice Service from the National Lottery Community Fund enabled us to recruit more staff and in tum increase the scale of our delivery. By the year end we also received further investment in our ND Navigation Service from NHS Sussex which wll also increase capacity, reduce waiting times and enable us to undertake more face- to-face support in community settings. Meeting demand continues lo be a significant challenge lo the organization. During the year we were only able to offer spaces lo 27 /0 of parents who tried lo book on one of ourtraining workshops whilst all of our services continued to operate th wailing lists. Whilst we continue to do all we can to fundraise and increase the capacity of our services, the trustees and senior management have also begun exploring allernalive delivery methods lo complement existing delivery and improve access for parents.
