SCIL is proud to be a founder member of South East Network of Disabled People’s Organisations (SENDPO).

SENDPO is being created as a network of Disabled People’s Organisations (DPOs) in South East region of the UK. SENDPO will be managed collaboratively by its DPO members for mutual benefit, to aid co-production and to facilitate the development and support of new DPOs.

A sustainable strategy for the development of SENDPO has been developed by a number of established DPOs in the South East and facilitated by a small grant and the active support of the South East Heath & Social Care Partnership.

SENDPO’s Mission is:

(1) To enable South East based DPO’s to share experiences and work together to build their sustainability

(2) To encourage the development of new organisations run and controlled by Disabled People

(3) To facilitate effective high quality co-production between DPO’s and statutory bodies.

SENDPO have just published their business plan which can be downloading by clicking the link below.
