Personal Budgets and Support Planning for Young People with SEND Preparing for Adulthood
Page last updated
Families and young people with an Education Health Care Plan are able to request a Personal Budget.
The Personal Budget is made up of different elements. These are:
-
Education
-
Health
-
Social Care
You can request a budget that redistributes the funds to better meet your needs.
If you have an EHC plan, you can ask for your own Personal Budget after the end of the school year in which you become 16.
Personal Budgets are optional. They will not replace or replicate existing services. They are only used to create bespoke services where there is an identified need or gap in your plan.
