The FIND database includes information about disabled children up to 18 years old in Lancashire. Families are invited to submit details about their disabled child to the database, which is used to develop an overview of the needs of disabled children across the county to assist with planning services. This service is strictly confidential - no individual information about any children or their families shared with anyone. Every family recorded on the FIND database receives a quarterly newsletter free of charge to help them keep informed about services and support which may be relevant. Families have access to a resource directory of local and national service providers. A multi-agency steering group oversees the management of the FIND database.
