What is the Surrey Children's Disability Register (SCDR) ?
The Surrey Children's Disability Register (SCDR) is a voluntary register for children and young people, from birth to 18 years old who have a disability or additional needs.
To be eligible the child or young person must live or have their home base in Surrey.
Will it effect entitlement to services
Registration is not linked to criteria for benefits or social care services. Access to services such as health and social care are dependent on a separate assessment of need. If you need to contact Surrey Children's Service regarding social care you should phone the Single Point Access on 0330 470 9100 or email: cspa@surreycc.gov.uk.
What is the register used for?
The register is a confidential database which holds basic information such as name, address and details of disability. Registering your child on the Surrey Children's Disability Register helps us to identify and plan for the needs of children with disabilities and their families. It also operates as a contact list to provide regular information and consultation about short break opportunities, funded by Surrey County Council, through the Surrey Short Breaks for Disabled Children Team.
Being on the register also includes access to the Max Card. The Max Card is the UK's leading discount card for foster families and families of children with additional needs. The Max card is like a credit card with a unique identifying number with the person's name written on the back. Families can use their Max Card at venues across the UK to get free or discounted admission.
How do I register my child ?
You can register your child by completing the SCDR online registration form. A child or young person does not have to have an Education Health Care (EHC) plan to be added to the register.
