Diet and nutrition services

Children and young people with SEND may have difficulty maintaining a healthy weight and getting all the nutrients they need to stay healthy.

It is important to help your child understand the health benefits of eating a balanced diet and the risks of being underweight or overweight.

Speak to your GP, health visitor or school nurse if you have concerns about your child's diet or if they have difficulties with eating or drinking.

They may refer them to a support service.
