What is SEN Friendly UK?

SEN Friendly UK is a growing directory of activities, days out and everyday venues across the UK. It is designed to make planning outings simpler for families of children with additional needs and disabilities.


About us

I’m Chlo, SEN mum and creator of SEN Friendly UK.

Like many SEN families, I would often only discover how busy, loud or inclusive a new club or venue feels through trial and error.

Sometimes, not knowing what to expect would prevent us from even going at all. I knew I wasn’t alone in feeling this way, so I created this directory to try and reduce that uncertainty for other families.

It highlights clubs, services & days out that are specifically for sen children, within your local area. Sharing what to expect as well as insights & tips from other local SEN parents who have been, in the hope this would help families feel more confident when trying somewhere new.

I’m grateful for our members and families who have shared their experiences within our ‘parent insight’ section.
