ContinYou is one of the UK's leading education charities. We believe that every child and young person must have an education that enables them to develop to their full potential.
Sibling Café
ContinYou’s Sibling Café project supports brothers and sisters of children with special educational needs (SEN). It aims to:
- provide these young people with opportunities to meet others in a similar position, share their experiences, and have fun
- link the young people up through meetings, activities, workshops and an interactive website
- help them to develop strategies to cope with the challenges they face in their home situation
- raise awareness of the issues they face among teachers, health professionals and policy makers.

‘Sibling Café is an inspirational project, which addresses a real need among siblings of children with SEN across the country – to have access to ongoing and meaningful support which is just for them.'
