Evidence
59 children with SEND took part in Dela Move and Drumming during 2025–26, bringing cumulative participation across two years to 106.
Families Together
In May 2026, BANG delivered the first Families Together event at Newman Catholic College, bringing together 74 SEND children and young people, parent carers, siblings, partners and services in an inclusive community space.
Young people took visible leadership roles in hosting, DJing, photography and documenting the day, putting BANG’s youth leadership model into practice.
All 13 families who responded to the July 2026 follow-up survey rated the event Good or Excellent, felt comfortable and included, and said they would attend again.
