Meet with us for online support
We understand that caring for a child, young person or adult with additional needs can be challenging as well as rewarding. We know that parents and carers of children with additional needs may feel alone and discouraged, and it can be hard to connect with others in a similar situation. Our online Just For You events seek to bring together people who ‘get it’.
What to expect
During this interactive online event, we will share how challenging it can be to parent a child with additional needs. Finding hope on difficult days can be hard, but along our parenting journey there are moments of achievement, celebration and fun that restore hope again and give us strength to keep going. There will be time to listen and to join a breakout room to reflect on what is shared.
This event will be held on Zoom, so you can make yourself a hot drink, curl up on the sofa, and join a community of like-minded parents. Partners can join too, and you won’t have to book a babysitter.
