  3. At the end of last year we were successfully awarded funding from CDC to run a project helping families with creative support planning and understanding personal budgets. • Between April 2014 and March 2015 we will run 8 half day awareness raising workshops in Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin supporting 20 families to each explore whether a Personal Budget would work for their family. • This project would link in with partners and compliment the SEN Reforms and move towards EHCP - which we know are still in their infancy.
