Deputyship/trusts and wills/planning for the future
Date: Friday 6th November 2026
Rhiannon Gogh will be offering another online parent sessions focusing on future planning for young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
The session will cover important topics including Deputyship, Wills and Trusts, financial planning, and preparing for adulthood. These areas can often feel complex and overwhelming for families, particularly as young people approach the age of 18 and parents begin to consider decision-making, legal responsibilities, and long-term financial security.
