CM postcodes
Autism & ADHD Support in Chelmsford (CM)
Mid Essex families can reach our Colchester appointment venue along the A12, and many CM households choose online appointments to avoid the commuter-hour drive altogether.
Living in the CM postcode area
The CM postcode area takes in Chelmsford and mid Essex, including Braintree, Witham, Maldon, Burnham-on-Crouch, Great Dunmow, Billericay, Brentwood and Ingatestone. These towns fall under Essex County Council, so the Essex Local Offer is the place to find SEN Support guidance, EHC needs assessment information and local services.
Many CM families complete most of their assessment online, which avoids the A12 at busy times. Where an in-person stage is needed, our Colchester appointment venue is usually a 30 to 45 minute drive, with free parking on arrival.
For a child's ADHD assessment, families can choose school questionnaires online or a school visit carried out in the child's own setting across mid Essex. Adults can be assessed fully online. Our reports are written to sit alongside Essex SEND processes, so they are useful in conversations with schools and the local authority.
Not sure where to start? You can begin with a free online screener, or book a consultation and we will talk through the options for your family, with no obligation.
