Amaze AGM and SEND Community Conference
Welcome to the Amaze AGM and SEND Community Conference!
At this special event, you’ll be able to meet and listen to engaging speakers and book an appointment to speak to one of our advice teams. You will also be invited to consider and debate what it might be like for families with SEND in Sussex in the next five years and how Amaze can be part of supporting families during that time. The thoughts and ideas you share form part of the process of developing Amaze’s new strategic plan for 2025-2030.
