Feedback
From a parent to the Supported Internships Project Officer in the SfYP SEND Team about a Supported Internships awareness event:
“I just wanted to say this was a really helpful forum. I have learnt lots and found out lots! Thank you. I think this would help so many parents [who are helping their] young adults find their future.”
