Meet the Team

Our Staff

All of our SENDIAS staff are independently trained to give you accurate, useful, relevant information and advice about special educational needs/disabilities. They’ll use their knowledge and experience to support you in making decisions about educational issues and concerns.

Most of our team work across the Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire areas. You may meet our Area Practitioners and other team members at our workshops, events and local drop-in sessions. Your first point of contact will usually be our Information, Advice & Support (IAS) line workers, who will respond to your contact form, telephone call or email.

Whether you live in Bristol, North Somerset or South Gloucestershire, any of our Information, Advice and Support workers can help you. Although you may build up a relationship with a particular staff member, we can’t guarantee that you will always be able to speak to the same person.
