Description
The SEND Summer Market place runs from 9:30am-12:30pm. The marketplace brings together a wide range of organisations in one place, giving families the opportunity to speak face-to-face with local services and support providers.
This year (2026), we worked collaboratively with the Bexley Carers Partnership, who can provide information and resources to Bexley carers.
Why attend?
The marketplace is a great opportunity to:
- Find out about SEND activities available during the summer holidays.
- Learn about SEND support and services available in Bexley.
- Access information from a variety of organisations in one convenient location.
- Ask questions and speak directly with service providers and support organisations.
Who can attend?
Any parent carers with children or young people (0-25) with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) who live in and/or attend an educational setting in the London Borough of Bexley.
When are they held?
The next event is due to be held in June 2027.
Do I need to book?
No booking is required. Simply drop in on the day.
