⚠️ This divide has even increased since 2011. 🔎 We are working hard alongside our partners across Norfolk to identify young carers, but more help and funding is needed for unpaid carers and the local carer services that support them.

Just One Norfolk has a whole host of online quizzes, video advice, informative animations & activity guides, which have been created in partnership with Norfolk families and local services. All these resources can be found on - justonenorfolk.nhs.uk/speech-languag… #SpeechAndLanguage #J1A

Educate Norfolk is there to support school leadership in any way it can. We are hosting Open Forums for Norfolk school leaders so they can share the issues they are facing, trying to find some answers by working together and so we can represent these concerns where ever we can.
