HIT squad Sensory Project Parent Questionnaire

1. HIT Squad Parent Survey for Hackney Sensory Training Project

The HIT squad (Health Integration Team) are keen to find out parent's views on leisure activities in Hackney in order to set up targeted training packages to improve SEN inclusion across the borough. Please note that your answers are anonymous and may be used in a future research project and for service development. This survey should take 5-10 minutes to complete and will really help us as a team to develop our training packages. Thank you in advance
