Unlike traditional information events, we want our FutureFest to be lively, interest-led, and hands-on. It will be a celebration of possibilities for young people as they explore their next steps in education, employment, training, health, community life, and independent living.

Important Safeguarding Notice: Children’s “Spy” Books

We want to make you aware of a recent issue affecting some popular children’s books by Andrew Cope, including the Spy Dogs, Spy Cats, and Spy Pups series.

Some editions of these books include a printed web address at the back. This link used to go to the author’s website, but the domain is no longer under his control. It has since been taken over by another party and now leads to inappropriate adult content.

The publisher, Puffin, has paused sales and distribution of the books and is working with schools, libraries, and retailers to remove copies from circulation. They have stressed that the website has no connection to the author or publisher.

We warmly invite all parents and carers of children and young people aged 0–25, along with professionals working in the SEND field, to join us for this important event. This workshop will focus on co-production – exploring what it means to you and how we can work together to shape SEND services in North Northamptonshire. We will also be sharing the results of the 2025 Parent/Carer SEND Survey, discussing how your feedback will be acted upon, and how progress will be monitored moving forward. It’s also a great opportunity to meet the SEND teams face-to-face, ask questions, and build stronger connections.

Together, we can make SEND services work better for children, young people, and families
