Community Support Groups

Parenting Special Children has set up several new local community support groups for families of children and young people with additional needs.

These events are currently running over Zoom

Aims of the Support Groups:

  • Provide a safe and supportive environment to share experiences and gain support with the unique challenges faced by families of children with additional needs
  • Establish support/social networks for families
  • Provide a half hour topic presentation relevant to parenting a child with additional needs. The remainder of the session will be for discussion of the topic and social support time

When face to face events are available: Children welcome under parent supervision. Refreshments provided. Please bring a packed lunch for groups which run over lunch time.
