Oldhams Local Offer

The Children and Families Act 2014 introduced a statutory duty on local authorities to develop and publish a Local Offer, which sets out what they expect to be available for local children and young people with SEN and disabilities across education, health and social care.

The Local Offer should include eligibility criteria for services where relevant and make it clear where to go for information, advice and support. It should be easy to understand, jargon free and structured in a way that relates to families’ needs.
