2024 -2025 ANNUAL REVIEW _—

SUPPORTING , INFORMING , INVOLVING AND EMPOWERING CAMBRIDGESHIRE PARENT CARERS

2024 - 2025 ANNUAL REVIEW

JANET DULLAGHAN Chairs of Trustees'

As the Chair of the Trustee Board,

It gives me great pleasure to introduce our latest annual report.

This has been a very successful year for us, and with a great, small, dedicated team of staff and trustees, it has been possible to reach even more parents and carers of children with SEND

Our purpose as a parent carers' forum is to engage and empower parents, embedding co-production and ensuring parents can participate in influencing services so all children can achieve their full potential.

Our Partnership in Neurodiversity in Schools (PINS) project has enabled us to reach more parents in schools, as well as through our Tii hubs. The development of our neurodiversity booklet and accompanying training modules will enable parents and carers to enhance their knowledge and understanding of their children’s needs and the services and support available in their local area. Feedback from parents and carers has shown an increase in confidence and resilience through peer-to-peer support, training, access to information and guidance, and signposting to services and support.

There have been many changes within the local authority and the development of the Integrated Care Board (ICB), and we continue to work closely with them to highlight the parent's voice and the impact of these changes. Both the Council and the health sector have continued to fund Pinpoint throughout these challenging times, demonstrating their high value for our work. We have successfully secured a grant from the National Lottery Fund to expand our Tii hubs, particularly in hard-toreach and rural areas, to support and amplify the voices of a broader range of parents.

The new Strategic Plan 2023-2028 details Pinpoint’s considerable achievements over the past five years and the challenges ahead. We have outlined our ambitious developmental goals in this Strategic Plan for the next five years, aiming to deliver the best possible outcomes for all children and young people with additional needs in Cambridgeshire. I want to thank all the staff, trustees, and volunteers who have made this possible.

Meet our Team

Pinpoint is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation governed by a board of trustees. The Board, many of whom are parent carers of children with SEND, shapes the strategic direction of Pinpoint, provides its governance assurance, and oversees the Chief Executive Officer.They work hand in hand with the staff team, who are also parent carers, to make the strategic aims into operational activity.The staff, in turn, listen to parent carers and shape Pinpoint’s offer accordingly, in line with the funding we receive.

Trustees are volunteers and meet once or twice a month to fulfill their roles. Our staff team are all part-time and term-time only, with the exception of the CEO who is part-time yearround. The staff team all have specific roles but are multi-skilled able to cover multiple operational functions, as needed in such a small team.

2024 - 2025 ANNUAL REVIEW

OUR CORE BUSINESS

We are the DfE Parent Carer Forum for Cambridgeshire and part of the regional and National Network of Parent Carer Forums

As Cambridgeshire’s Forum, we are also a member of the Eastern Region Parent Carer Forum (ERPCF) and active members of the regional SEND Network.

We attended a one-day virtual National Network of Parent Carer Forum (NNPCF) Conference and a face-to-face NNPCF Conference. We have taken part in training throughout the year. Our contribution was recognised by both the Secretary of State and School Ministers.

We have worked with Department for Education Colleagues to ensure voices from our region have been heard directly by those delivering national policy and practice.

The ERPCF commissioned Forums to undertake new Health work, such is the strength of our network.

Sarah, our CEO, is a representative for the ERPCF working regionally, as well as Chair of the regional forum. Lisa, our Deputy CEO has is a regional and national representative too.

Local Authority and Health Parent Participation and Co-production

We are seeing growing numbers of children and young people year on year with sepcial educational needs and disabilities, with a surge far beyond those forecast. This is causing pressure on services which were not commissioned to cope with this demand, schools who are finding they have more children who need additional help and support and families who are increasingly anxious, and frustrated, that their children's needs are not being met as quickly as they should be. All of this has meant we have been increasingly needed as a forum not only to raise parent carer voices and to ensure service providers hear that feedback but to signpost to services and to provide much needed peer support.

We continue to deliver a range of workshops and training funded by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Integrated Care System (ICS). These include Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)/Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) workshops. The ASD/ ADHD groups continue to run each month onilne. We have been able to provide a wide range of speakers offering advice and support on topics parents tell us they need. This year these have included mental health, anxiety, behaviour management and managing sleep.

SEND OfSted and CQC Inspection

The Inspection took place across three weeks in January 2025. We were included in every meeting alongside health, social care and education. We were one of the inspection team's first fact finding sessions and they used our feedback and reports about what you tell us, to frame their key lines of enquiry. We promoted the Inspection parent carer survey and they had one of the biggest reposnses they had seen across any inpsection. Inspectors noted: "The parent carer forum is included in all strategic planning disucssions, provides regular challenge across the (SEND)partnership and ensures that parent carer voices are heard.".

2024-2025 ANNUAL REVIEW

PROJECT UPDATES

In 2024-25 we actively sought additional funding, which led to several new projects.

Pinpoint Champions

We have continued to support and slowly grown our current cohort of Champions. They are a small but powerful team able to advocate for parent carers, signpost to services and offer peer support. They feedback on services and help us at sessions with service providers.

Pinpoint Tii Hubs

These virtual groups had been running since 2022. We offer a two hour drop-in each week in term-time. These sessions offer parent carers a safe space to seek help and support, be signposted to services and to recognise that they are not alone. The Monday sessions are open to all parent carers. We have tried offering sessions specifically for families of children with Profound and Multiple Difficulties as the needs of this group of parent carers are often more specific as they are further through their SEND journeys earlier than many who join us at Tii Hubs. We looking again at new ways to reach this group of parent carers. New support enabled us to add a Cambridge Tii Hub to our monthly offer.

Pinpoint Workshops

TELL US:

"Very practical advice and avenues to tuen to for support - thank ypu so much."

"There were very helpful advice and tips on what might be causing my daughter's sleep issues and how I can help her."

"I've learnt a lot of things I didn't know."

We started these with funding from the Opportunities Area. They have proved so important to parent carers that we have funded these with the help of the County Council going forward. The programme responds to the issues parent carers raise with us and covers a wide range of topics for families with children and young people of all age groups and with a wide range of needs. These sessions are integral to our participation offer, providing direct feedback through the surveys we do and through the comments made during the workshops. We have also moved the sessions to span lunchhours seeking to accommodate those parent carers who work but can join us in their break.

Twilight Sessions

These have come about from the ongoing request from parent carers keen to join us but unable to do so in working hours or when their younger children are awake. When we piloted these previously we struggled to get good take-up but we have been delighted, if not a little overwhelmed, by the number of parent carers joining us on a Wednesday evening. This year these are funded by Huntingdon Freemen. We will continue to provide this offer whilst we have the funding and parent carers available to host.

"I t really helped me appreciate the real extent of my daughter's needs and that they should not be belittled."

2024-2025 ANNUAL REVIEW

PROJECT UPDATES

In 2024-25 we actively sought additional funding, which led to several new projects.

Location-based offer - Huntingdon

We have been running a location-based project in Huntingdon over the last four years, thanks to funding from Huntingdon Freemen. The project was to make a direct offer to schools to identify and train Pinpoint Champions who could support parent carers associated with each of the pilot schools. With each year we have evolved the project to reflect the need of parent carers, and schools. We continue to offer Tii Hubs at Maple Centre in Oxmoor. We have been able to support 63 parent carers through this initiative and through the provision of location- specific information on our website.

Neurodiversity Booklet

We first discovered the Essex Forum / Essex partners and NHS commissioned booklet last year and asked if it might be possible to have a version created for Cambridgshire. We were delighted when our ICS was able to broker an arrangement with Essex to provide the template and then to fund us to create a Cambridgeshire version that we could share with parent carers. The booklet has been viewed by 7774 parent carers, reaching 30% of our parent carer audience. We have developed training to offer alongside it and have rolled it out to parents, schools and professionals. This will form part of our traded offer from 2025.

WHAT PARENT CARERS SAY ABOUT THE BOOKLET:

"This is an amazing resource - I wish I had it years ago!"

" (It gives a) clear overview of how to get help and navigate what feels like an overwhelming set of systems."

" (It gives) information that other parents shared helping clarity and give direction on my doubts."

"This is an amazing resource that has given me so many ideas of how I can support my little one. Thank you so much!"

"Makes me feel more confident about how to move froward and how to support my child. Also will help me explain to my husband why she needs different support to other children and he thinks its just behavioural!"

"Its practial and created by those who have lived experience."

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

Commentary On The Year

and keep support, for their children. Its hard to get their voices heard by everyone all of the time, and many report feeling they are not believed when they explain the challenges and issues that they and their children are facing, particularly when it relates to behaviours seen at home. Professionals are reporting feeling overwhelmed by the numbers of children needing support and assessment services are in despair that they cannot see children in the timescales they would wish

This all sounds bleak for a team of parent carers who remain resolutely optimistic . But this outlook is the only way we can stay energised and focused on making the system and experiences for families better. The SEND system is struggling for resources and from the overwhelming tsunami of need postpandemic. We have watched the Local Authority and Health fight for more resources and valiantly seek to transform SEND in Cambridgeshire. But resilience is low for professionals (and parent carers) and it’s a daily battle. As a Forum, we can only help parent carers if we stay positively and constructively engaged with the system. This frustrates those who are angry about a failing system and want us to – campaign, but our Forum status prevents us from doing so our Forum status prevents us from doing this. So we do all we can to provide searingly honest feedback, remembering that those who have to commission and deliver services often feel as frustrated as those of us who use the services.

Against this background of increasing difficulty, the work we do takes on even greater significance and importance. When parent carers feel alone and cut off by the system, they need more support than ever.

The isolation they feel (and their children feel) is harmful, and we are playing our part to provide a safe place where they can find peer support; itt has never been more needed. As the system becomes harder to navigate and feels like there are more barriers, providing timely, free information with practical support enables those waiting for services to have the knowledge they need to support their children. Empowering parent carers with knowledge and skills enables them to stand up and ask for what’s needed and fight for it if required. Giving parent carers the confidence to know they are doing all the right things helps them to stay positive and better able to support their children. Providing an inclusive Forum where it's okay to say it's awful and yet also to say when things are going really well is vital. The challenge for us is helping families to understand that every day we are playing our part to make things better for their children. Our You Said, We Did is a snapshot of the activity we undertake to make that difference. You would be forgiven for thinking that Pinpoint is a huge organisation with endless resources – we are eight part-time parent carers with lived experience and a budget that barely breaks even. And yet, the tone of this report speaks to our can-do attitude and determination to be here for the next 15 years.

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

Our new 5-year strategic plan 20 23 -2 8

We set ourselves a hugely ambitious task as we started 2024 - business as usual, our three core priorities (extending our reach and empowering parent carers, promoting co-production and influencing policy and practice) whilst embarking on a new business plan to deliver financial independence and sustainability. We also took on the new PINS pilot programme.

The new Neurodiversity Booklet has been promoted as a free on-line resource , also available for downloading. We have now commissioned some printed versions for sale and some which will distribute to schools and libraries, funded by Cambridge Community Services - thank you CCS. We further developed training modules to share with parent carers and professionals. We have commissioned work to our website to enable to begin to trade our training and resource material and expect to launch in the summer of 2025.

Our team of nine part-time staff all have individual roles and responsibilities but all have to be able to cover for each other to ensure we have business resilience. We are all always pushing the boundaries of our knowledge and developing our skills and this year has been no different. We have needed to expand our technology skills as we have continued to explore how our digital presence can enable us to reach more parent carers - we've been using artificial intelligence to game the ever-changing social media algorithms!

We spent considerable energy on our influencing and relationship management in the face of considerable staff changes in health , social care and education. This stretched our capacity when we then supported the OfSted Inspection, emerging CCC Inclusion Strategy, and Health's further work to overhaul the Nero-developmental Pathway. We also took on the New Partnership For Inclusion of Neurodiversity in School Pilot. We supported 27 schools to set up their own mini parent carer forums and to help professionals and parent carers explore how to better recognise , support and understand neurodiversity. We co-hosted termly meetings in each primary school and have developed a training programme we will look to trade with more schools next year, as the programme will no longer be a health-funded offer locally.

National Recognition For Coproduction

We won a national co-production award for the work we did with the Occupational Health Team. Nicola and Linda identified the need to easier earlier support for families which resulted in a new telephone service and a new training programme for schools. They were joined at the ceremony by Jo, not only our regional NNPCF rep but also the national co-chair.

2024-- 2025 ANNUAL REVIEW

Our Aim: Extending our reach to help more parent carers

Empowering parent carers by reaching them early in their SEND journeys is key to the work we do. We hear more from parent carers of primary-age children (SEN Support) than the number who have Education Health and Care Plans in this age group. This meets our aim of empowering parent carers early in their journeys. We work with the Early Help teams (Social care, education) to promote the support we can offer families early in their journeys.

We collect a wide range of data from different sources - virtual sessions where people attend 'in person' and complete surveys and provide feedback for us, and then there is data we collect from our website and social media platforms, generated by the hosts' software. This can give us challenges in interpreting the information - for example the website can tell us gender (of who the account is registered to) but that doesn't necessarily mean that is who used the account. We do know that our website is a source of information for those starting their journeys, with around 186% of those accessing it year after year being new visitors.

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

" It’s great that Pinpoint is parent-led as it feels more practical than practitioner-led. Content is really helpful in understanding my son’s needs better. Thank you for all that you do."

The number of pages viewed has increased in the last 6 years by 370%. We know that we are reaching more new parent carers consistently year after year.

"Such a invaluable service that’s offered."

"Thank you for providing these valuable information sharing opportunities."

"Thank you so much for organising the conference. You do a fantastic job in getting everyone together!"

"Just a big thank you to everyone. You are brilliant Pinpoint"

"Thank you so much. Of all the organisations we've come into contact with on our journey, Pinpoint have been one of the most impactful. From telling us about the incredible SEND Trampolining club at IVC where we've made so many friends to a conference that helps us tackle some of the tricky things we're going through, thank you, thank you thank you!"

"Pinpoint has been the only consistently useful organisation supporting us in our SEND journey!"

"I came to pinpoint through a recommendation from my family worker, and it has been an absolute lifeline to me especially in the very worst weeks we had."

We recognise that how people reach our website varies but our data shows the importance of our social media channels as a means of directing people towards our information. Of our top ten arrival locations to our website, 63% of our website visitors arrive from Facebook, 11% arrive directly from the Local Authorities Local Offer and 4% arrive having accessed our newsletter.

Empowering parent carers by providing the right information through Pinpoint sessions .8% of those who attend take the time to complete our feedback. 96% of those say they find the sessions very beneficial. 96% feel encouraged to take action as a result of attending our sessions.

Our sessions are commissioned based on the most common needs. For the first time since Covid, Autism and ADHD has overtaken Social and Emotional Mental Health as the largest group of need that parents attending our sessions report. This may include children with or without a diagnosis. We know that more families are reporting children and young people's mental health has become a concern with increasing numbers telling their children are notable ti attend school or access education. We have increased the advice and support for this cohort and families and the Local Authority has produced more guidance and support for schools and families as a result on ongoing coproduction with Pinpoint. We also know that some children and young people communicate through their behaviour and families continue to report a high incidence of poor, challenging or concerning behaviour, which would also come under the Social and Emotional Mental Health (SEMH) category. We have foundadditional resources to commission free parental information sessions on these areas of need.

It should be noted that we are funded by the NHS (Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Integrated Care System) to provide monthly Autism and Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) information sessions. These needs make up the biggest groups of need amongst those who respond to our Annual Survey. Some of these children also have co-occuring conditions - for example, SEMH. This is why we usually enable parent carers to record multiple needs, in any combination, when they report.

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

PARENTS TELL US:

"Thank you very much for today’s webinar. It had all the information I need to go out and sort out a will and prepare a bit of my sons future, with just the gentle kick up the backside needed to do it now rather than later before it’s too late! The extended Q&A was really valuable, to hear other people’s experiences. Thank you to everyone at Pinpoint for all that you do. Your help has been invaluable to my wife and I over the last few months."

" Just to be able to talk with like-minded parents who understand what your going through and listen it gives to strength to carry on your fight such a invaluable service that’s offered and understood we are all able to help each other in the fight for equality for our neurodiverse children."

"I found the workshop brilliant. I learnt new way of trying to approach the school and gain extra support for my daughter."

Taken from CCC Inclusion for All Data Set

We use provide information sessions based on the feedback we receive from our families. Whilst we try to cover a wide range of needs each year we will commission additional sessions and invite specialist practitioners to join us where gaps are identified. We often

provide sessions that cover multiple needs, responding to the likelihood of co-occuring needs.

We have provided 59 opportunities for parent carers to gain – information and support in the last 12 months averaging three Pinpoint information sessions per month and a weekly Tii Hub (peer support session) in term time, in addition to two conferences.

We regularly update our website information and resources in response to parent carer identified needs and signpost via our social media channels. We work with the Local Authority, Health and SENDIASS to ensure they understand changing patterns of demand and proactively seek additional support to match emerging patterns of need.

Our Handy Guides (free print-on-demand resources) have again been updated and are written for parent carers by parent carers.

"It was great to hear from the professionals who are trying to make a difference for our children. I really hope that the message gets through to schools too as these sessions can sometimes feel frustrating they are wildly different to our families experiences with schools."

"Nice to meet team (LA), hear what progress and what working on to improve, and ask questions, give my own perspective."

Reaching out to help hear everyone's voice: a strategy to reach out to those we hear from less often and who are often under-represented.

Empowering our parent carers to navigate the system and feel confident to make progress on their own. 95% feel they have the information they need to take the next step

(Pinpoint Session Feedback). The quotes throughout this report highlight this.

Empowering our parent carers by building their

confidence. 92% say that they appreciate feeling they are not the only ones in their situation (Pinpoint Session Feedback).

Reaching those in “our audience” is a real challenge as not all will know about Pinpoint. We ensure that we do all we can to reach out across the school system, making sure that at least once a term we are included in the Director of Schools' email sent out to all schools and – settings we include text which can be lifted and put straight into communications which schools and settings share with parents.

Tii HUB ATTENDEES SAY:

"Attending Pinpoint's Tii Hub peersupport group for the first time, I cried while explaining our increasingly nightmarish predicament. Given this absence of support and understanding, the camaraderie of being with a group of people who are non-judgemental and know, without you having to say almost anything, exactly what you are suffering though is truly priceless."

"It was a very kind caring environment, I felt very at ease for my first ever session."

TRUSTEES SAY:

Our parent carers predominantly access information through social media – we reach 5,878 who follow us this way. We are prominent on other organisations’ social media as a way of raising our profile and reaching more families who might not know about us or look for us.

We reach out across schools, settings, children's centres, food banks, places of worship, and GP surgeries. We ask our partner organisations to use their networks and we attend events. Our Champions work to reach people in their own communities too.

Ethnicity

The families we are reaching match the ethnicity profile that Cambridgeshire has for those with EHCPs. Although the populations are small, we do see families from most ethnic groups living in Cambridgeshire. We work with the Local Authority's Early Help Teams and those who work with Traveller's communities to promote Pinpoint.

Geography The impact of geography is comparable between the percentage from each location known to have EHCPs and the reach we are achieving from our sessions, where known.

Age and Gender As already set out in the limitations of the data paragraph, our social media platforms record the age of those registered with internet providers but it it possible for others to be accessing our website through someone else's account. Based on the hosts' data, the age profile of our audience is predominantly 35 - 54 in age but this varies in how they access Pinpoint.

"I volunteer as a Pinpoint champion because pinpoint has done so much for me and my daughter and I want to give back."

"No matter how little or how much I do to help it's always very appreciated."

"I'm a Pinpoint Champion because I know what it feels like to feel alone and over-whelmed. Together we not only give support to others but we also are supported. If I can help by listening to others, share experiences and validate how others are feeling".

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

New insights about how parent carers feel their children and young people are included in out-of-school activities with theirpeers.

It is increasingly apparent that many children and young people with SEND feel isolated and need more support to feel included and to participate in social activities.

WORKSHOP ATTENDEES SAY:

"Thank you! First meeting for me and feeling very comforted now, we’ve got this!"

"This is my first meeting it was awesome."

Results form our mid-year and end-of-year surverys.

We've been asking parent carers what they would need to have in place for their children and young people to be able to join in and feel included. Whilst every child's needs are different, there is clearly a message that families report their children cannot join it without support or don't have the opportunity to join in because there isn't the right kind of offer or activity. More than one parent carersadly told us they feared their children would never feel included.

"Thank you all. So pleased to find this community."

"Thanks for being here for us all, feels like we have a small army of friends out there!"

"Knowing we are not alone and other families have the same struggles. Some really good ideas to put in place."

"A few small tips make all the difference. Thank you so much."

WHAT PARENT CARERS SAY ABOUT WHAT THEY NEED FOR THEIR CHILDREN TO BE INCLUDED:

" Activities offered need to be accessible and of interest to children like my son. They’re predominantly sport related or music."

"Having clubs that meet my child’s interests would help. It would also help if there were social clubs for children unable to attend school, my child would love to socialise with other children but does not have the opportunity."

"Mutual support and friendly ears! "

"Able to share and received shared challenges and be comfortable to discuss."

"Knowing I'm not the only and there is help out there."

"Havi"ng friends."

"SEN help at clubs."

"To be included in any out of school activities. people just take the mick out off his way of doing things."

"Has never been offered and would need a 1-1."

"More support in adult care. Groups with his own kind to make friends that are safe. More support for non-verbal people with days out."

2023 - 24 ANNUAL REVIEW

Our Aim: Creating opportunities to promote co-production and participation

Co-production provides a process for sharing decision-making power. In collaboration, the principal decision-maker invites others to join them in the process. Collaboration, like consultation, seeks to surface the best ideas through dialogue, exploratory questions, and identifying best practices. In co-production, however, it is the collective participants who determine the best way forward and make the decision together.

Co-production is the way we work with the Local Authority and – Health staff. We promote co-production at every opportunity it is where we all work together as equals with professionals and services, all listening to each other, valuing each others' viewpoints, and doing the best for the child or young person. Good co-production also means working together when implementation takes place, and this is happening in Cambridgeshire through formal structures (boards and working groups) and by working with officers.

Pinpoint and the Local Authority (LA) have shared coproduction Charter and Pinpoint has training material to support those new to co-production. The LA also has a tool kit for co-production it give to newly commissioned services.

Co-production was embedded in the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough SEND Strategy and is being embedded in the emerging Cambridgeshire Inclusion Strategy For All Cambridgeshire and Peterborough’s SEND Strategy and Pledge ran from 2024-2025. It has been

In addition to Pinpoint being an independent Parent Carer Forum, it is also funded by the Local Authority to provide additional capacity for co-production. Parent carers use their lived experience to design, improve and enhance services. Pinpoint assists in the collation of parent carer views on relevant and focused areas of activity in order to co-produce improved policies and services. Pinpoint also provides feedback to enable service commissioners to evaluate the services they commission and to consider how well services meet the needs and aspirations of the children, young people and families for whom they provide .

We work to ensure parent carers are heard by those who commission (buy) services for – Cambridgeshire children and young people we do this through our Participation Toolkit (see below). We are proactive in seeking out participation opportunities and creating them where possible, but we also facilitate the work of others to get their voices heard by sharing ways to take part. We work to create opportunities for parent carers to bring us their issues and concerns so that we can ensure they are taken back to those making decisions about services. As we are committed to hearing all our parent carer voices, we also have a more detailed Seldom Heard Strategy to ensure that we take every opportunity to engage with all our parent carers.

We facilitate participation on behalf of the LA (education and social care) and Health, on behalf of local SEND organisations (e.g. Cambridge Children's Hospital), on behalf of the NNPCF and we share opportunities to participate in SEND research. The principle system for this is our social media channels.

Tools we use for participation:

Pinpoint’s website Social Media: Facebook, x (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn and Instagram Pinpoint Reference Forum Pinpoint Partners in Commissioning Working Groups Pinpoint Focus Groups Meet the Head of SEN Network Sessions Network Meetings Termly Sessions for Education, Health, Mental Health and Social Care with LA and Health professionals The Pinpoint Champions Network Workshops Commissioning specific tasks and finish groups

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

Improving school attendance We have been pleased that, working with the Local Authority and raising parent carer voices, there is now a better offer of support for children and their families. We have a new toolkit to help schools and families whose children cannot attend (which is now called Emotionally Based School Avoidance EBSA) and commissioned service from Nessie.

We are improving Education Health Care Plans (EHCPs) through co-production. We have participated in the LAs improvement work and spoken up about the things parent carers want, and need, in their children's EHCPS.

The timeliness of statutory processes remains a practical issue for families and the Statutory Assessment Team. The LA has heard and understood parent frustration about access to and communication with this team - we have been raising this with them every month! They have been working to recruit new staff to fill vacancies, improve processes and ensure they make it easier for parent carers to talk with them.

Compliance and expectations are the cornerstone of the Local Authorities SEND Strategy priorities, as parents told us it is an ongoing issue and a key priority to be resolved. The LA understand that if the system did what it was supposed to do much angst and consider improvements would happen. This is being taken into the new Inclusion For All Strategy.

We strive to seek more support to be provided early and more effectively for all children and young people with SEND. The Local Authority's ‘ordinarily available provision' toolkit is now in use and we have been working to ensure families know it exists and have clear expectations about the support their children should receive .

We have continued co- producing a new Neurodiversity Pathway that seeks to offer a clear route to diagnosis and support to those who are on the pathway (even if they don't receive a diagnosis). This has been a long, drawn out piece of co-production which is now finally moving into a phase where we should expect health to commission a new offer.

We were delighted to be able to provide hard copies of Pinpoint 's 'Supporting Your Neurodiverse Child' booklet. We've had in excess of 7,500 downloads of our free online version and are delighted to now have printed copies. These will be going out to libraries and schools in 2025.

We successfully delivered the national PINS (Partnership in Neurodiversity in School) programme alongside the Local Authority and Health. Over 30 schools were supported to provide mini school-based forums and engage in co-production with parent carers at school level, supported by Pinpoint.

“Waiting Well” is a concept we introduced eighteen months ago – it’s the principle that if you have to wait to see a specialist, you can manage this better if you are not in crisis and have active support in place whilst waiting. We are pleased that health and education services are using this idea to co-produce a new " waiting well’’ offer.

We continue to co-produce the new SEND Information Hub, ensuring that it meets the needs of parent carers. In parallel, we continue to ensure our website evolves as parent carers seek support from us – we respond to topics raised by individual enquirers and themes that emerge from our participation sessions. We've also updated our free 'print on demand' Handy Guides.

We continue to run our co-production focus groups to make them work better for parent carers and offer more opportunities for service commissioners to engage directly in participation and production. We have four formal network sessions a term on the themes of health, mental health, education and social care.

2023 - 24 ANNUAL REVIEW

Pinpoint’s Annual Conferences We went mad this year and ran two free annual conferences! These days are well-received and saw more than 230 parent carers attending , over seventy stall holders providing information, support and advice and twenty-three workshops across the two events.

Co-production of award winning new early Occupational Health support . Pinpoint fedback parent carers' need for early quick access to professionals and they listened - the new service can be accessed without a referral and is much appreciated by families.

Participation in the new Integrated Care System through the Autism and Learning Disabilities Board. We have our seat on this Board to feedback parent carer voices and to escalate concerns about keeping children out of crisis whilst waiting for services.

Support for the National Health Service Key Worker Programme. We continue to work alongside this activity which is intended to keep children and young people from entering mental health inpatient care (if it can be avoided) through better support at home.

Participation in the development of the combined SENDIASS service. We have a seat on the Board to help the service meet the needs and aspirations of families who need independent advice and support in Cambridgeshire.

Participation in Courageous Conversation with Health . Rather like the SEND Peer Review, this version works with Health is explore local issues and provide challenge and support, leading to local improvements.

Participation in Preparing for Adult hood Strategy and conference. We lent our expertise in organising parent -focused conferences to support the LA's new offer of a PfA conference. We also continue to support the co-production of new PfA information for families. We continue to advocate for more support to enable young people to enter employment and more support to help ypung people leave home and live independently.

Participation in the Inclusion For All Strategy Launch - we took the opportunity to talk about how it feels to be a parent carer and the aspirations we have for our children to be included - in school, in a peer group and in society.

Feedback that makes us want to do even more:

"Rather than just filling in the form yest again I thought I should write about just how invaluable Pinpoint Cambridgeshire is. I am happy for you to quote this with my name attached. Not only is it helping parents in ways that nothing else ever could, it is undoubtedly saving Cambridgeshire time and money by taking, at least some of the workload off Cambridgeshire employees. Not only is Pinpoint a credit to itself, it is also a credit to Cambridgeshire as supporters of Pinpoint. I have heard of so many others outside of Cambridgeshire, who see Pinpoint as the organisation they would like to aspire to. I am amazed that so much is being achieved with so few staff. It is just a shame that Pinpoint's staff and resources cannot be expanded to other counties and to cover other age groups. It saved my life."

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

Why participation matters to parent carers:

"To get the parental side of things and hearing strategies parents use at home or trigger points. The importance of talking to parents as the experts."

"Understanding parents' points of view."

"Feeling heard and validated thank you -I have 3 children 1 girl and 2 boys one has SEND."

"Thank you I felt listened to."

"It was refreshing to hear a professional be so open and welcoming of parents and their parental experiences."

"Thanks Pinpoint for passing on our experiences and reminding the LA and Ofsted that parents are reasonable people put in an unreasonable situation. We just want our children’s needs to be met."

Pinpoint attends a number of strategic meetings throughout the year where we represent parent carers' voices. Our role in these sessions is to play back what we hear from families and to ask for the things parent carers tell us would make a difference for their children and young people.

Some of the representation undertaken this year:

2024 - 25 ANNUAL REVIEW

Our Aim: Influencing policy and practice in Cambridgeshire and beyond

Cambridgeshire

Influencing policy and making sure that it reflects parent carer''s and their children's, needs and aspirations is crucial in making the biggest difference for Cambridgeshire families: if the policy is right then the practice that comes from it should be right too. This is only possible where policymakers are committed to co-production and where there are robust professional relationships underpinned by trust: some of the conversations we have are difficult and sensitive but they are also fiercely open and honest. Without this, we would not be able to affect change on behalf of our parent carers. We celebrate the positives, look for the 'better if's' and are clear about the gaps, and what simply doesn't work.

We do this by having a seat on each of the strategic policy boards, presenting updates and raising issues, and contributing to every discussion on emerging work in social care, education and health. The expectation is that the information we provide is considered in the round and, wherever possible, is acted upon - to change policy, to influence further investigation or even to disagree with so we can co-produce alternative options.

We work hard to ensure that as many individual parent carers as possible have the opportunity to work directly with policymakers through the participation work we do: hearing directly for those whom the policy impacts upon is incredibly powerful and policymakers regularly refer to the conversations we've facilitated. We work with Health Watch, Fullscope, Hunts Forum, and Caring Together to raise local voices.

Across the region

We are active members of the Eastern Region Parent Carer Forum, using this to raise voices across East Anglia. We routinely participate in the Regional SEND Network meetings, the Preparing for Adulthood Network, the Autism Network, the Neuro-Developmental Disorder Network and the Palliative Care Network. We have been working with the new Children's Hospital. We speak up and aim to not only shape policy but ensure that our parent carers benefit from any new and emerging work intended Cambridgeshire families and children.

National

Parent carer voices must be heard at the highest levels of decision-making and we take every opportunity to make those views heard nationally. We have taken part in discussions around the emerging new Participation Tool that will be used to benchmark local areas in terms of how they engage, co-produce and can show that they listen to parent carers and young people. We take every opportunity to feedback through the National Network of Parent Carer Forums, as well as using our contacts in the Department for Education. We have spoken up over concerns regarding SEND resources and parental concerns that a lack of money and competition for resources could disadvantage their children. We provided feedback on the SEND Green paper and were vocal participants at the NNPCF National Conference. We have raised concerns about the challenges of supporting young people post-18 who may have mental capacity but lack the understanding to make good choices: this is a real worry for many families.

2023 - 24 ANNUAL REVIEW

Our Aim: Securing our financial future so we are here for

you

We worked hard to build a secure financial position to enable us to have confidence that we can weather the challenges that all charities face in terms of the vagaries of public sector income streams. We have appropriate levels of reserves and sufficient funding to enable us to deliver our core business.

Pinpoint has improved the financial monitoring processes to enable the Trustees Board to have a clear view of the finances and regularly monitor income and expenditure for existing contracts, grants and other funds. We hold the Hunts Forum 'Good To Go', which is an independent quality assurance standard for the Huntingdon voluntary sector and confirms our governance is robust.

Additional funds have been raised successfully for discrete projects such as developing parent Champions. We are in year three of a two year grant from the Local Authority to continue to deliver parent participation and engagement services. The Local Authority have confirmed their ongoing commitment with the offer of forward funding. We continue to have a contract with the

Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Integrated Care System: the new contract is for two years with an option to extend for a further two years. It enables us to provide ASD/ADHD workshops, which are a lifeline to so many parent carers, offer additional mental health support and contribute to the Key Worker Programme. We were thrilled to secure funding from the National Lottery which will start us start a five -ear engagement and growth programme from April 2025.

We are incredibly grateful for the donations and grants we received from our other funders. St Ives Town Council continue to support us with our office accommodation. This year we have also had a grant from Huntingdon Freemen, Tesco, Coop and Cambridgshire Community Foundation . Supporters have donated through charitable shopping and made online donations. We have been charity of the year for The Worshipful Company of Launderers and were delighted when Compare the Market commissioned us for our first traded session and gave us a donation. And Tom's Cakes help us feed our conference guests each year!

Thank you
----- End of picture text -----

Planning ahead, we need to raise our own funds from other sources or receive additional funding to carry out specific work such as running face-to-face parent support groups and developing webinars or training packages. To do this we will:

• Identify and secure fundraising opportunities to sustain existing activities, achieve developmental goals, and diversify sources of income.

• Ensure that Pinpoint has the capacity and can act swiftly to harness funding opportunities as they present themselves.

In April 2024-March 2025 You Said... We did...

We reported regularly at the Local Authority and Health's strategic meetings to ensure that senior officers were aware of your concerns and could consider opportunities to address them. These are the issues raised in our Annual Survey.

You said… that the Statutory Assessment Team continues to cause worries in terms of poor communication, timescales not being met and lack of knowledge of local schools and services from caseworkers. We…

offered our parent carer voice to improve letters that parent carers receive.

You said… that health services are reported to be difficult to access with little to no support whilst waiting, and parents feel they are abandoned once their child is diagnosed. We…

continually updated our website to help you find the health information you need for health and mental service services.

You said… the thresholds for mental health services are too high, and the waits are too long. This exacerbates poor school attendance for those who can’t attend due to poor mental health. We…

have enhanced the information on our website to offer more signposting and support

You said... emotionally based school avoidance is exacerbated by poor access to mental health services. We...

are offering regular sessions to co-produce support for families.

You said… there is a lack of services post-16. We…

are working on a parent to parent guide for PfA

You said… that you feel professionals lack training, knowledge and understanding. This is particularly the case in schools where the biggest concerns are around a lack of understanding of the needs of SEND children, masking and being considered ‘fine in school’ and a lack of awareness around school-based trauma and absence. We…

professionals where they regularly feedback that they learn a lot.

You said… there remains an issue around compliance with the law (SEND) and a lack of accountability in schools. We…

You said… that you know the demand for services is high, but the system is complex, and everything is a constant battle with the onus being on parent carers. We…

You said... there is a lack of joined up thinking and working across services meaning that parent carers have to tell their story multiple times and they have to chase a number of services simultaneously. We...

You said... there is not enough support at an early stage so families end up in crisis before support is offered. We...

develop our information sessions based on YOUR feedback.

You said... there is not enough easily accessible information. The SEND information hub (Local Offer) is not well known about and is difficult to navigate. We...

You said… you can feel overwhelmed with caring responsibilities, and this gives you the time and energy for little else – it can also weigh heavily on your own mental health and well-being.

We…

2.2 INCOME

Recognition of income
Donated services and
f
iliti
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
Contractual income and
performance related
grants
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
Offsetting
Grants and donations
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Legacies
Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
Donated goods
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.
Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is
treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the
terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless
required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
