SEND Partnership Newsletter

The SEND Local Offer team lead on production of the monthly SEND Partnership E-newsletter `Peer into Southend`, designed to share key updates and news from the Southend SEND Partnership.

The Local Offer Team, Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust (EPUT), Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board, and Southend SEND Independent Forum (SSIF) - the parent carer forum for Southend, are regular contributors of content.

Newsletter subscribers and open rates

Subscriber numbers grew steadily throughout 2023. Starting at 1,063 in January, it reached 1,723 by December - gaining 660 news subscribers. There were only 20 unsubscribes during this period.

We measure open rates each month. The average monthly open rate over the year was 47%. We would like to see an increase in this.
