The Disabled Children’s Register is an information database which is designed to hold the contact details of disabled children and young people under the age of 18 in Warrington.

By registering, families can be kept regularly up to date on all the services and support available in Warrington via an e-newsletter. It will also mean that you can comment on the services you receive and make suggestions to improve services in the future.

What information will be recorded?

Information held on the register will include:

Child or young person’s name, date of birth, gender, ethnicity, religion, home address, telephone number, family’s first language, information in relation the child’s disability and name of parent or guardian.

We will also maintain a current email address, where available, as this is the most efficient way to communicate with you.

Where will the information be kept, and can I see it?

The information you provide is held confidentially and securely on computer with Warrington Borough Council. To see information held about your child, please make a request to us at the address below.

Is it compulsory that my child’s details be recorded on the Register?

No, the Register is voluntary and details of your child can not be added without your permission.

Will my child’s information be shared with other agencies?

No. We won’t share any information unless you have told us that want us to share them with Warrington Parents and Carers Forum (see link below).

Can I opt out of the Register at any time?
