Get involved For organisations Corporate support Corporate support Create lasting change Work with IPSEA to support the futures of children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Together, we can empower families so they can secure the education their child is entitled to. We can scrutinise and influence local and national SEND policy to ensure the rights and entitlements of children and young people with SEND are protected. We can’t do it alone. Your support and investment can help children with SEND have the opportunity to reach their potential. Contact our Partnerships Team Partnerships Collaborate with IPSEA to actively demonstrate your support for children and young people with SEND and their families. Any type of exclusion from learning can be, and often is, the beginning of lifelong disadvantage and marginalisation. As an organisation, you may be the employer of parents and carers who are battling to secure the right education for their child. You also hold a position as a future inclusive employer of today’s children who benefit, or stand to, from SEND provision that meets individual needs. As an IPSEA partner, your organisation can make a substantial difference to the lives of children and young people with SEND and support parents/carers in your networks. You could have access to training and webinars for your employees, online learning resources and ongoing engagement opportunities. You’ll also be the first to hear about how to get involved in new fundraising events and volunteering. Fundraising and challenge events We are here to support your team with fundraising ideas and inspiration. You can support IPSEA with all the classic fundraising activities and we can help you come up with original team challenges too. We can also secure places for your team in unforgettable challenge events. We know you have colleagues who are aspiring marathon runners or seasoned cyclists. Inspire them to take on a challenge to support IPSEA and encourage their efforts through offering match funding. We regularly take part in London Legal Support Trust events, including the London Legal Walk, where our teams raise funds directly for IPSEA. Check out our current events. Volunteering IPSEA’s services are delivered by an incredible national network of volunteers. Your team could offer their time and skills to help families tackle the challenges associated with navigating the SEND system. Read more about what it takes to be an IPSEA volunteer. Then get in touch with us if you are interested in volunteering opportunities organisation-wide. Pro bono assistance As a small charity, any pro bono assistance is greatly appreciated. Pro bono assistance helps IPSEA deliver our services, train volunteers and provide support to volunteers and IPSEA’s staff. You could bring vital expertise to our charity and make a lasting difference. Sponsorship Sponsorship is an excellent way to showcase your support for children and young people with SEND loudly and proudly. We have opportunities throughout the year for your organisation to sponsor projects, campaigns and events. In-kind support Office and event space for running our training days or carrying out our volunteer training is an invaluable way to support IPSEA. We are always looking for venues across England, so please contact us if you can help. Law firms As a law firm, you have the unique opportunity to utilise your legal expertise and skills to transform the lives of children and young people with SEND. We can work with legal firms to tailor a volunteering model which helps IPSEA increase the number of volunteers supporting our beneficiaries, whilst also providing the opportunity for your organisation to give back to the community. We further collaborate with law firms through our policy work. Contact us If you are interested in working with IPSEA, please contact our Partnerships Team at [email protected].
