Overview

We're an award-winning SEND organisation, providing independent information, advice and support to parents, carers and professionals of children and young people with special educational needs. We were founded in 2017 by Chrissa Wadlow after her own gruelling battle to gain her daughter a suitable education provision. Her journey, littered with injustice, was filled with a catalogue of errors and the family received very limited help from services they thought they could trust, creating irreparable damage for the entire family. It took 2 SEND tribunals, a high court case and one final SEND tribunal for Chrissa to gain the educational placement her daughter needs. It shouldn't be this hard. Chrissa could not allow this to continue to happen, and so formed Sunshine Support to help other families navigate their way through the process of Special Educational Needs to ensure they received the RIGHT advice and guidance from trustworthy experts. We have now helped more than 10,000 families across the country to get what their children need; gaining equity and justice. We provide access to independent SEND professionals whose specialisms cannot usually be provided through local government and health authorities.
